Meeting the parents of your puppy doesn’t have much practical application since the parental traits that are passed down to one or all of their offspring are random and unpredictable – as is true for many animals, people included. Man O’ War’s parents didn’t have any more foals like him and none of Mozart’s children were musical geniuses. Take a deep breath and accept fate – anyone who hopes that researching the daylights out of a puppy’s heritage will help to produce an amazing adult dog may just be barking up the wrong tree. |

This is so interesting! How I love reading the Daily Dog Tips. Kudos!

You’re so sweet to say that! I am delighted that the tips are pleasing you – I hope you’ll have a chance to listen to my radio show DOG TALK on Saturdays at 8 AM your time. It’s live on NPR in Southampton, New York and streams live on the web at http://www.WLIU.org. “Talk” to you soon I hope!
