Good article, excellent. I like the last paragraph best. In today's Boerboel, I view this as our only option...thus emphasizing the importance of good working specimens coming together, regardless of registry...regardless of politics...regardless of money.

"Rather than use a statistical pedigree analysis to try to locate rare founder genes, one can instead simply assess the dogs living today. Genes and genetic combinations worth saving for a working dog breeding program can be found in those dogs who retain breed working abilities."

Thanks,
DKH
