  • Purebred Dog Breeds Into the Twenty-First Century: Achieving Genetic Health for Our Dogs
    Purebred Dog Breeds into the Twenty-First Century: Achieving Genetic Health for Our Dogs BY JEFFREY BRAGG WHAT IS A CANINE BREED? What is a breed? To put the question more precisely, what are the necessary conditions that enable us to say with conviction, "this group of animals constitutes a distinct breed?" In the cynological world, three separate approaches combine to constitute canine breeds. Dogs are distinguished first by ancestry , all of the individuals descending from a particular founder group (and only from that group) being designated as a breed. Next they are distinguished by purpose or utility, some breeds existing for the purpose of hunting particular kinds of game,others for the performance of particular tasks in cooperation with their human masters, while yet others owe their existence simply to humankind's desire for animal companionship. Finally dogs are distinguished by typology , breed standards (whether written or unwritten) being used to describe and to recognize dogs of specific size, physical build, general appearance, shape of head, style of ears and tail, etc., which are said to be of the same breed owing to their similarity in the foregoing respects. The preceding statements are both obvious and known to all breeders and fanciers of the canine species. Nevertheless a correct and full understanding of these simple truisms is vital to the proper functioning of the entire canine fancy and to the health and well being of the animals which are the object of that fancy. It is my purpose in this brief to elucidate the interrelationship of the above three approaches, to demonstrate how distortions and misunderstandings of that interrelationship now threaten the health of all of our dogs and the very existence of the various canine breeds, and to propose reforms which will restore both balanced breed identity and genetic health to CKC breeds.

  • 1 Nature of Horse Breeds
    1 Nature of Horse Breeds The horse captures our imagination because of its beauty, power and, most of all, its personality. Today, we encounter a wide array of horse breeds, developed for diverse purposes. Much of this diversity did not exist at the time of domestication of the horse, 5500 years ago (Chapter 2). Modern breeds were developed through genetic selection and based on the variety of uses of horses during the advance of civilization. Domestication of the horse revolutionized civilization. A rider could go farther and faster than people had ever gone before. Horses provided power to till more land and move heavier loads. Any sort of horse could provide these benefits, as long as it could be domesticated. However, over time people became more discern- ing about the characteristics of their horses. The intuitive and genetic principle that “like begat like” led people to choose the best horses as breeding stock. At the same time, people in different parts of the world used different criteria when select- ing horses. The horses were raised in different climates, fed different rations, exposed to different infectious diseases, and asked to do different types of work. Genetic differences could and did have a large impact on these traits. Over time, selection led to the creation of diverse types of horse around the world. We use a variety of terms to describe the genetic diversity among groups of animals, both to distinguish horses from other animals and examine differences among the different types of horses. Those terms include genus, species, popula- tion, landrace, and breed.

Assessing Color and Breed In model horse competitions, the goal is to faithfully recreate the equestrian world in miniature. It is what exhibitors strive to do and what judges consider when evaluating a table of entries. One aspect of that evaluation is whether the color of the model is realistic. In order to assess this, a judge must be able to distinguish between visually similar (but often geneti- cally distinct) colors and patterns and determine whether or not the color depicted on the model is suitable for the breed the entrant has assigned. This task is complicated by the fact that many participants—who are at heart collectors as well as competitors—are attracted to pieces that are unique or unusual. So how does a judge determine which colors are legitimate for a particular breed and which are questionable or outright unrealistic? When it comes to the range of colors within each breed, there are three basic considerations. Breeds are limited by the genes present in the population (what is possible), by any restrictions placed by their registry (what is permissible), and by what is counted as a fault in breed competitions (what is penalized).

  • SHEEP Improvement the Foundation Stock for the Flock of Demonstrated by Purebred Southdown Sheep, Owned by the U
    578 YEARBOOK OF AGRICULTURE, 1927 SHEEP Improvement The foundation stock for the flock of Demonstrated by purebred Southdown sheep, owned by the U. S. Southdowns department at Sheep Acres, Beltsville, Md., was selected in November, 1909, from the Huntleywood flock of Beaconfield, Canada. Sheep Acres is a part of the United States Animal Husbandry Experiment Farm. At the time the sheep were purchased the Huntleywood flock was owned by George Drummond, who had made extensive importations of sheep from England, principally from the famous Babraham flock of C. R. W. Adeane and the Sandringham flock of the King. It was considered at that time one of the best flocks in America. The selection consisted of 29 yearling ewes and a yearling ram, Babraham Hercules, 23701. This ram, as well as the ewes, was carefully selected from a large number and the entire lot consisted of individuals of outstanding merit. While there was but little apparent difference in the indi- vidual excellence of the ewes purchased, they differed so greatly in their ability to transmit desired characteristics in their offspring that careful selection of the stock for breeding during the last 20 years has eliminated the offspring of all but 10 of the original 29 ewes. Of the 49 ewes now in the breeding flock, 37, or 76 per cent, trace directly on their maternal side to 5 of these 10 ewes. All the purebred Southdowns were kept at the United States Morgan Horse Farm, Middlebury, Vt., until November, 1915, when 43 ewe lambs were shipped to the United States Animal Husbandry Experiment Farm, Beltsville, Md.
