I think your presentation of this ...Cody Collins, <br /><br />I think your presentation of this article was superb being that it's something you don't agree with. Although I also am an animal lover, its undeniable that without animals we would not have the genetic information that we currently possess. Testing that may have been unethical or upsetting to some, has brought a greater understanding of heredity, in the case that tests of this nature cannot be performed on humans.<br />Saying this, the only benefit to genetic modification is money and prizes for people exploiting the genetics of animals. I agree, this should not be done. flicausihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870066252448212185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360356351594869925.post-26138818826345473362016-02-27T12:40:24.722-05:002016-02-27T12:40:24.722-05:00Cody, I completely agree with your opinion on this...Cody, I completely agree with your opinion on this topic of breeding dogs for the enhancement of athlete purposes. As an avid dog lover, I think this is flat out wrong. If breeders keep being careless to the fact that mating dogs with genetic mutations; sooner than later it will lead to severe consequences and increase the number of genetic defects in the breed. The breed of whippets will then loose sight of their true AKC standard and will be distorted throughout generations. As you mentioned in your post, the dogs that have the potential to express the mutant shouldn't even be considered for breeding purposes. They should ban the breeding of these "bullies" so that there is no chance for the genetic mutation to be expressed. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07357771799464649667noreply@blogger.com
