I will be glad to address these and discuss them with you in addition to givin you my thoughts, feel free to share yours too. OK, let's start one at a time, shall we?
Let's go with this one: "Lack of Gender Characteristics"
My questions and point: What are these? The source lists them, but I have yet to see any explanation as to what they are. Plus, this link you posted is from 1993...surely you cannot argue that something from 1993 can automatically be considered as still "fact" and "valid?" Also, this site is breed specific...a study and site about Labrodors, not Yorkies. I am sure you can agree that vets should focus their attention differently when big vs small breeds are concerned? How do we even know, that this would apply to a small breed? The study obviously was done on Labs, which have a different genetic composition that could have an influence on the outcome of the findings. In you opinion, do you think this individual (we can address the others later) fact should be considered heavily when considering a basis for an individuals breeding practice? |
