How many generations can something pass through to a dog?
It probably depends on what it is, but lets say like with Labs for one, do you think that after 3-4 or 5 generations of no joint problems it would be gone? How many generations could that pass through? Or like with my breed (GSDs) and hip dysplasia, could that pass through 3-4 or 5 generations?
I thought this was a very interesting question.
TK gave a good answer concerning hip health.
However, we see that the generations a trait is passed can be unmeasurable.
For instance, there are 14 dog breeds that DNA has proven are the oldest of *tested* breeds, as they are most closely linked to the common ancestor of all canids, a wolf-like canid, “Canis diris”. Of those 14 identified breeds, all but 3 of them still demonstrate very feral, or wolf-like traits, compared to the other breeds tested..
When I was breeding Dobermans, I took 10 of my Dobes to be evaluated by my mentor. One of them had a very slight underbite. My mentor stated that she knew who the g,g,g,g,grandsire was, and asked to see the pedigree. Yup, 6 generations back, there he was..She said that that dog was a great working dog, but shouldn’t have been bred, and that his mouth is still cropping up..
My own lineage of Afghan Hounds goes back to “Hermit”, a dog who never showed, as he was too unsociable. However, he produced 63 champions ( the most of his era, 1960′s). Sure enough, 9 generations later, my breeding program produced a gorgeous, but TERRIBLE tempered puppy. I spoke with an older breeder who had leased Hermit, many years ago, and she said he was more than just “unsociable”, but very ill tempered and mean. All of my other dogs have had great temperaments, but that one terrible little puppy came along totally out-of-the-blue.
