The Seminar will be in two parts:
• The first part will be based on an analysis of a Yorkshire Terrier pedigree database, registration statistics, and pedigree analysis of influential Yorkshire Terrier Dogs and Bitches. It will discuss genetic diversity in the breed, how the selection of mates and types of matings manipulates the genes of the ancestors in the pedigree and popular sire syndrome. A question and answer period will close this part.
• 10 – 15 minute break.
• The second part will discuss the genetic disorders affecting the Yorkshire Terrier, with updates from conversations with any pertinent researchers. The Foundation’s Health Survey will be analyzed in relation to what is seen in the field. The talk will cover the different types of genetic tests, their availability, and their proper use. It will include breeding recommendations to manage different types of genetic disorders. A second question and answer period will follow.
