Do you think it's safe to say, that even if Ksena is a purebreed - it won't come back that way....
Does anyone have any experience with this?
I just sent my sample in yesterday - so if it comes back that Sully is part German Shepard....what then? I guess I will have a good laugh. But seriously, how does anyone know they have a "real" purebreed....anyway.
DH says that they all came from somewhere and if there's a genetic DNA marker from 300 years ago or 1,000 years ago that says German Shepard, or wolfhound or whatever....then that just means that at some point in the evolution of animal - there was a mixing of the breeds....he says that we evolved from chimps....so at some deep genetic level there has to be a trace of monkey in us....right?. Why else would he have a hairy back.  |
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!! Hubby def. wild Orangatan but back to the point....Did I pick the wrong test? The vet said it was the best one and easy to understand? I don't see how if Ksena is pure it could show something else especially if the chances lessen the further back it goes. I'm thinking the opposite to be true....Anyway, Ksena chased a big poor quality golden lab or a lab mix (

) off her turf the other day...I started to think she may be part Pit Bull......
I looked up characteristics of chihuahuas and Yorkies to try to further analyse myself because it is driving me nuts and it said Chihuahuas can jump almost as high as cats....Ksena can almost get on the couch...Poor Jonah's feet barely leave the floor.....Also, while I'm on here anyway, a girl who lives beside me came by with her part Chi/Yorkie to see the pups and her dog and Ksena were going nuts after each other...very funny...Jonah's like huh???? Does anyone have a crazy pure Yorkie...I know chihuahuas go off but didn't realize Yorkies did too??????????
