Yeah, she’s the madame who put the breed Labrador into the mastiff-group, beside the Newfoundlander. The thing you have objected in our discussions about the case.
They took the DNA- samples from the huge Show Labs, so no wonder, see.
The study that found dogs are mostly Middle Eastern wolves found that Newfoundlands are actually retrievers– and so are labs.
What is the “right” retriever DNA?
Wihtin Labs and Goldens, there are great diversity.
From Labs, the type goes from a tiny Mickey Mouse of the 20s’ to the Newfoundlander -type.
But you seem to speak about the newest & the biggest study 2010. They had a much greater amount of samples – and surely not just the Show dogs.
But E. Ostlander, in the video, speaks about taking samples at “dog shows”, which they did. And that happened in 2004. I don’t beleive they went to a field trials to take a sample, since only about 4 per one breed were taken.
BTW, did she participate to the 2010 study?
Both of my dogs contributed DNA to this lab.
I note she uses Canis familiaris and speaks as if dogs are a separate species from wolves. ;)
I noticed that.
I cringe whenever I hear “Canis familiaris” without a “lupus” in between.
I find myself doing the same when I hear “Canis rufus” or “Canis dingo” sans the “lupus ” in between.
