  1. actuallly i am from germany. Hunting with Sighthounds is not allowed in Germany. Hunting in general is under restriction. You need a license and it is pretty expensive. It is a shame because in most areas I have been too there are plenty of rabbits. So bottom line is dont get caught, because it can be really expensive! The Rules are very different from "bundesland" to "bundesland" and even from City to City...
  2. really good looking! Would you mind if I ask how big she is and how much she weighs? Cheers, MagyarAgar
  3. Thats a great looking dog! Credit to you. Cheers, Magyar Agar
  4. That is really, really a good looking dog! Saw a lab x grey over here in Germany and it looked really similar. Cheers, MagyarAgar
  5. Yeah you are right. read the wikipedia article. This one is quite good. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterosis Most of the inter species matings are not possible, those matings often dont have hybrid vigour. A dingo is a subspecies and of some people even this is doubtful. So it is no problem to mate dingo x dog. And yes you would have hybrid vigour.
  6. Yeah but you have the healthiest stock when it has high percentage of heterozygous allels. And what I was trying to say is that line- and inbreeding elevate the level homozygosity and hence lower overall fitness. Have a look into modern stock breeding. They have many hybridbreeds. There are also efforts for trying to find lost allels and revive them with outcrossing and so on. They also do genetic screenings to find the best mating partners. In dog breeding we are milenia behind stockbreeding! Cheers, MagyarAgar
  7. - Never ever will this be the case. Good and Bad Genes will get passed on roughly in the same percentage. You never can control which gene gets passed on when you breed. There is genetic recombination, point mutation, genetic drift and so on. - line breeding and inbreeding decrease the genetical variance, which means you get more homozygous Allels. Which is often seen as strengthen a type or line. BUT the problem is you dont want homzygous dogs. Because most health defects appear when the are homozygous in a gene, because they are recessive. - genetical variance (also called bein
  8. By the way how tall is she? Cheers, MagyarAgar
  9. Thats a fine looking bitch you have there! If you ever breed of here let me know. Cheers, MagyarAgar
  10. stunning! Really a fine specimen! Cheers, MagyarAgar
  11. Credit to you. Is she a Kelpie grey first x? Cheers, MagyarAgar
  12. amazing looking dog! Cheers, MagyarAgar
  13. Absolutly stunning! Really good looking dog in top condition ATB, MagyarAgar
  14. It is the same gene defect. These animals are myostatin deficient. There is a study of whippets were they showed that race champions have often the allele configuration of normal/deficient. The normal/deficient type of whippets is more muscular then normal/normal. I think this pic is from the study: Cheers Magyar Agar
  15. Thanks for the good read, and nice dog! Cheers, Magyar Agar
  16. Nice pics! It looks like your brown bitch is maturing. Looks better in every pic i see of her. Cheers, Magyar Agar
  17. good pics of even better dogs!! I really like the look of your red bitch! Cheers, Magyar Agar
  18. absolutly nice pics! Cheers, Magyar Agar
  19. Nice Pics! Thanks for sharing Cheers Magyar Agar
  20. Can u say more about this dog? Do You think it would be worth crossing it with a greyhound? Cheers Magyar Agar That particular dog is a gem. A better cattle dog than the pure heelers that are employed on the farm. Very dominant though. Me and my oppo have always thought that he'd be a great cross for a lurcher for the lads who like the Australian dogs but we've never done it and have no intention of doing it either. Great little dog. Very smart, very hard. That sounds quite nice! Thanks for the info. Cheers Magyar Agar
