I am having fun with her she thinks shes 10 feet tall lol
I'm glad she's getting to do what she was made for, color aside. Ace is one of the lines I alluded to as needing dilute color testing.

No doubt it's been done a lot, and recently. It was done to win trials.....
There are always scumbags that will do anything to win.....sort of piss on your leg and tell you its raining when they present the papers and say they have a GSP. Like Mark Maguire...or Rodriguez or the rest of the upright "junkies" in sport....

I haft to share that two of Hanshaws older dogs with same pedigrees were at a (not very reputable) trainer and accidentally got bred and he got 9 lemon and white pups out of the cross. :roll: :roll:

There defiantly is a problem with some of these lines of dogs. I keep hearing that you know it is in there and you just haft to expect it to show up every once and a while. :twisted: NO I don't. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: I don't ever expect to have a lemon and white pup out of one of my dogs. :mrgreen:

I have just gotten 1/4 of some of this blood in my young dog. If I would ever get a lemon and white pup, I would be letting everyone know that there is something wrong with these dogs. There is too much of the Its ok behind the scenes good old boy club. How many drowned pup really are born from some of these crosses? :cry: :cry:

This is our breed and those that quietly let this go are doing no benefit to the breed. I know nobody wants to call out one of their friends, but they need to know it will get out to the rest of our small world.

The responsible thing to do is to get the coat color test that Casey is talking about and breed responsibly.

There ain't nothin wrong with em except the color.

That is a big problem!! :!: :!: We are so hard headed on not letting black be a acceptable color for GSP's yet some don't think the production of yellow and white GSP's is not a problem. Just give them away and go on to the next breeding. If you know you have a color problem, do the right thing and don't breed.

It doesn't matter if they have National Champions in their title pedigree. Don't breed them.

It doesn't matter if they are a National Champion. That doesn't mean it is ok to pass on lemon and white.

If you are mad about your dog throwing lemon and white pups, get mad at the kennel that sold you the mix breed GSP with the "ee". That is what you are doing by selling any pups out of these dogs to your potential buyers. :D
NO NEED TO BASH THE WHOLE LINE SCOTT!

I'm not bashing any line. I'm BASHING irresponsible breeders and their dogs. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

If there is a problem with their dogs, the breeder doesn't need to spread their problems on to other non suspecting folks. :(

Thing is, people didn't know they'd have a problem until they started tightly linebreeding and getting yellow dogs.

I have coat colored two of my dogs because it was the right thing to do. One is Trey (NFC), who's grandfather is ACE (the sire of the litter of Hanshaws that produced yellow and white pups. The second is the direct daughter of ACE. Yes, they have both been DNA'd. Neither have the gene that causes the yellow color. They do not have the e gene, thank goodness. I do not know or profess to know how the yellow came about. Could it have been tightly bred dogs or as some to suggest come from introducing pointers into the bloodline sometime back. It is for all you pundits out there to figure it out. I personally will not make accusations. Unless a person is witness to the breeding of EP to GSP or has direct knowledge they should not be second guessing. Just my two cents worth.

As long as any animal bred to those two of yours is DNA tested for color and parentage, then it ends and the line going forward from your dogs is clear of surprises. Simple enough.

Personally I don't think It came from breeding to tight. Many other lines have bred as tight with no color issue. You can outcross breed two carriers and have a color issue.

Higher is way better for the breed and everyone involved.

Those trying to get a quick fix and try and get ahead are not what the GSP breed needs.

If they have a problem with that, then maybe they really should look in to getting into pointers.

Nothing against pointers, just they shouldn't be apart of the GSP's or any of the other breeds.

I agree, but it's more than likely been 30+ years since it allegedly was done. How many dogs have Clown, Tonellis, Rusty, or Slick in them? You need to be on one side or the other! Either every dog that decends from these lines should be removed from the breeding pool or we continue on, 30 years later, and police it the best we can with DNA.

Don't want to hi-jack the thread but, I have a question???

So, if "x" dog 30 years ago was half pointer and the products of that dog today are "P" and "N". If "P" tests positive for e and "N" tests negative for e...

Is it o.k. for "N" the one that tested negative to remain in the breeding pool?
Is it o.k. for "N" (tested negative) if she is all white with just enough liver to cover most of her ears and catch her eyes with the pointer dot on top of her head to remain?
Is it o.k. for "P" to be bred to non carriers?
Is it o.k. for...... on and on and on......

Maybe we're just improving the breed (I don't mean by crossbreeding to pointers!) and those crying foul just want something to use as an excuse for not keeping up.... see this post: viewtopic.php?f=69&t=39735

Guys and Gals why are we having this debate we all agree that it has happened more than 10 years ago so that would mean that most would be almost gone by now. 10 years is at least 3 generations on the pedigree which would mean it is less than 1/8 by now if not 1/32-1/64. Yes you will still see throw backs every once in a while and they should be treated as such. Now going forward if AKC or FDSB does not require a female to be DNA tested it won't change much I think that if you raise a litter both parents and grand parents need DNA to stop any kind of conflict. With that said I hope everyone has a great day.


Thanks
Stan

10 years ago means some of those dogs are still in your kennels and have just ended their reproductive years. Some might be 3 or 4 generations back but some may just be one. Why do you think it all ended 10 years ago?

Back when they did it, the people were doing it to win. Now we have people like Hanshaw doing it for money.

Do you think he tells puppy buyers that his bitch is Ee? He just keeps right on breeding her.

Is he testing those puppies and neutering/spaying the carriers?

I said 10 years ago because that is when AKC put there DNA policy in effect. There are a few that admit to doing it but as far as I know the people I talked to are only hunters and wanted more run. As far as doing it to win if someone wanted to you still could. I called AKC about a DNA kit for a female and was asked by there rep why because they don't require DNA on females only males the sire more than 4 litters in a lifetime or two litters in one year. So I could cull paper a female and breed like no tommrow and sell them as GSPs and no one would know any different till they get an off colored pup. As long as DNA on the sire was right now that is why sire and dam and there sire and dam should be DNA tested. The only reason i've commented on this post is because I like the GSP

I am having fun with her she thinks shes 10 feet tall lol
Hankshaw made a big stink a few months ago and blaming the sire of his litter for the yellow pups. Now he won't post the DNA results. Another member says he knows of an instance where two of Hankshaws dogs were accidently bred by pointers. Why won't the guy show the DNA results?

Exactly!

That would leave us with what?? DK's and line bred Hustler dogs??

If there is a test that can determine that the dog carries a gene that will throw the yellow color lets use it to cull the breeding stock and move on, just like we're doing with LD!!

Doesn't it all come back to Responsible Breeders?

If you have displactic hips, you wouldn't breed that dog would you?

Same for some physical, some cosmetic defects. like overbite, "ee" etc....

If you have a known fault, or know your dog throws it, best to not breed that dog.

There are some dogs that with these traits, that it still is not best for the breed to remove them from the breeding pool. There needs to be responsible breeding with these faults in mind as to who they can be bred to.

There are judgement calls where faults not dangerous to the pups or new owners. They could test all that want to breed to to make sure it doesn't show its ugly head. Then let all those who buy a pup out of your dog know they they need to be tested before they breed.

I have had the owner of a very well know stud dog let me know that he had a perfect bite, but that he had thrown bad bites in the past. That is all you can ask of a responsible breeder/dog owner. You then have the info to make a choice if you are willing to gamble with the genetic make up of the pups/new owners.

Re: GSPs with EP bloodlines?

Hankshaw made a big stink a few months ago and blaming the sire of his litter for the yellow pups. Now he won't post the DNA results. Another member says he knows of an instance where two of Hankshaws dogs were accidently bred by pointers. Why won't the guy show the DNA results?
This is what he told me.
They were not bred to a pointer, it was two of his gsp's that were bred and produced the lemon and white.

If you have displactic hips, you wouldn't breed that dog would you?

Same for some physical, some cosmetic defects. like overbite, "ee" etc....

If you have a known fault, or know your dog throws it, best to not breed that dog.

There are some dogs that with these traits, that it still is not best for the breed to remove them from the breeding pool. There needs to be responsible breeding with these faults in mind as to who they can be bred to.

There are judgement calls where faults not dangerous to the pups or new owners. They could test all that want to breed to to make sure it doesn't show its ugly head. Then let all those who buy a pup out of your dog know they they need to be tested before they breed.

I have had the owner of a very well know stud dog let me know that he had a perfect bite, but that he had thrown bad bites in the past. That is all you can ask of a responsible breeder/dog owner. You then have the info to make a choice if you are willing to gamble with the genetic make up of the pups/new owners.

It could never have been just the sire, assuming the sire was a "GSP".

If there is a test that can determine that the dog carries a gene that will throw the yellow color lets use it to cull the breeding stock and move on, just like we're doing with LD!!
There is a test, many folks would rather not know.

I think that a lot of people are unaware of the test and don't understand the subject.

I'm not sure why anyone wouldn't want to know. A litter of off color puppies, and everything that comes with it sounds like a pain in the arse to me.


But yes, some know and don't care.

The people who knew and cared in the past were the ones that took a bucket to the whelping box. Maxwell even mentions that practice in her book on the breed. When troubled bloodlines reached the uninformed, became widespread and out of control of those who knew the risks, when the internet made things immediate and public knowledge, that's when it became a problem and blame was laid on the whistleblowers, not on the source point. Look at dates, trial results, and locations. FOLLOW THE MONEY.

Test em and identify carriers and breed responsible.

No need to remove entire dogs from the gene pool because of hysteria and uneducated people.
