| "We are the custodians of our chosen breeds during the relatively
short period of our dog breeding lives. It behooves us to hand over the material
we breed with in a better state than when we received it or we have achieved
nothing and the breeds we profess to love will be the sufferers."
~ Malcolm B. Willis from Introduction to Genetics of the Dog |
