Hi again, I should really clarify that I don't believe the study was deliberately skewed to produce certain results. The specifics I noted in my previous post (like the demographic make-up of racing whippets in different regions of North America) or even the difference between European and North American whippets could not have been known by the scientists at the Ostrander Lab. Sandymere, there were never any specific studies done of the muscle tissues so there's no way to know the exact impact on the heart. Apparently, there are two types of double muscling; in one, the number of musc

Hi all, My name is Jen Jensen; Heather asked me to join up and fill in some of the blanks on the double muscled whippet. I was the person who initially contacted the Ostrander Lab about the bully whippets and then worked on getting a genetic test developed.

The sample size of the original study was extremely small, less than 100 whippets used to establish that "carriers are faster than non-carriers". That alone makes the results a little dodgy. Additionally, there are four different racing organisations in North
