This work was commissioned by the Scottish Government to ascertain what effect the total tail docking ban had on working gundogs and terriers and whether legal exemptions to the ban should be made to improve the welfare of working dogs. Three studies were conducted to examine the risk of tail injury, especially in undocked working dogs, as well as details regarding tail injuries: A retrospective internet survey for working dog owners, an analysis of clinical veterinary data, and a prospective study of tail injuries.

The exact account of how this lovable breed came to be is unknown. However, it is believed a Bostonian imported a bulldog/English terrier cross named Judge from England and from him, developed the Boston Terrier. The Boston Terrier is a compactly built, short backed, clean cut dog. This dog is relatively easy to train and well adapted to home living. They are great family dogs that enjoy socializing with people and kids, while also being gentle and quiet. They are well mannered and obedient, however, can be territorial of their owners, which can often spark aggressive behavior towards other pets and strangers. Due to their short noses and inability to both cool and heat air, Boston Terriers struggle to adapt to the outside temperature and should be kept indoors. Their short noses also lead to plenty of snorting, drooling and snoring. The Boston Terrier is prone to flatulence so be prepared for some unpleasant smells around these big eared canines. They were the first dog breed that originated in America to be recognized by Fun Fact the AKC in 1983.

  • Opportunities for the Mississippi Fair Commission: a Blueprint for the Future
    #527 Joint Legislative Committee on Performance Evaluation and Expenditure Review (PEER) Report to the Mississippi Legislature Opportunities for the Mississippi Fair Commission: A Blueprint for the Future The Commissioner of Agriculture and Commerce, acting in his capacity as chair of the Mississippi Fair Commission, requested that PEER review the commission’s management of state-owned facilities and offer a strategy for strengthening those facilities’ revenue- producing capabilities. He noted that the environment in which the Fair Commission attempts to attract events has become more competitive within the last decade, with similar types of facilities that are newer and equipped with more advanced technology. In making his request, the Commissioner also noted that the Fair Commission is a 100% special fund agency--i. e., it generates its own funding and receives no general funds from the Legislature for day-to-day operations. The Fair Commission’s assets include five major revenue-producing facilities that generate revenue primarily through rental fees and concession sales. The remaining facilities are support facilities necessary to produce events at the major facilities as well as support the State Fair and Dixie National Rodeo. While the Mississippi Fair Commission routinely hosts events that support its statutory mission, the majority of the revenue- producing events held on the fairgrounds complex do not directly support its statutory mission. The commission primarily relies on repeat business from promoters and its controls over contractual employees are insufficient to safeguard its revenues. For fiscal years 2007 through 2009, the Fair Commission had event-days on which the commission’s facilities were not in use--i.

Coat Color E Locus (MC1R) No dark hairs anywhere (ee) The E Locus determines if and where a dog can produce dark (black or brown) hair. Dogs with two copies of the recessive e allele do not produce dark hairs at all, and will be “red” over their entire body. The shade of red, which can range from a deep copper to yellow/gold to cream, is dependent on other genetic factors including the Intensity (I) Locus, which has yet to be genetically mapped. In addition to determining if a dog can develop dark hairs at all, the E Locus can give a dog a black “mask” or “widow’s peak,” unless the dog has overriding coat color genetic factors. Dogs with one or two copies of the Em allele usually have a melanistic mask (dark facial hair as commonly seen in the German Shepherd and Pug). Dogs with no copies of Em but one or two copies of the Eg allele usually have a melanistic "widow's peak" (dark forehead hair as commonly seen in the Afghan Hound and Borzoi, where it is called either “grizzle” or “domino”).
