Can you see the English Mastiff in this female? Laira' is looking for a home that loves large dogs. Very easy going and loves to hug her people on the living room rug. She is kind of Velcro to her people as she just loves people. She would love to gently take a cracker from the baby or even an adult. lol... She can easily get over weight if fed too much. Yes, she loves food!
She weighs about 130 lbs and has an Alaskan Malamute type coat. She also has Irish Wolfhound in her pedigree.

Need a large friend that just wants to hang out?

10/11/24 we will be trying one more time with this girl. She will be placed up for adoption, and as long as she is not pregnant she is currently available. She is a very sweet girl, she is a active girl and would love to go on box with you, but will not last very long on runs or jogging lol after al...

This is a female out of our Dire Wolf Project, in which I breed several breeds together to get a Dire Wolf in looks only.
All the dogs being outcrossed into were well thought about and hand picked for this on going project over 30 yrs now.

As we move forward into the next generations we always choose a pup that is better than both mom and dad. Banshee is a great mom and dog and we are looking for a good home for her. The adoption fee helps the Dire Wolf Project continue to produce Healthy good looking dogs with great temperaments.

The temperaments of the Am. Alsatian is a kind loving lap dog or companion dog. Non Working. Though some of our outcrosses to possess some of the outcross breeds genetic propensities, we will always share the information that is spot on' with all our new owners. We love our new owners and we love how they love our dogs.
If you would like this particular gal, please go to our web site to read up on all our adults or pups.
We appreciate your love of our big dogs.

Factual (nonfiction) web sites and Books

Choose any subject that you wish to gain knowledge in and 60% of that book you are reading or that web site you are reading has been done by an A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) or a human being that knows nothing about the subject.

In most cases you will not be able to find the author. Sometimes you will find an author that has written on 50 subjects. ATTENTION: they do not really know about any of those subjects.

Go ahead and do the research.

Here is one for you. Look up health issues in the American Alsatian or for that matter any breed. YOU WILL FIND the same health issues in all the breeds. Go directly to the source (me for instance, or my daughters) the only people that breed the American Alsatian and that truly KNOW what issues face our dogs and the percentage of health issues and you will see exactly what I am talking about.

Here is another one. Look up the American Alsatian and go to the many web sites that will tell you all about them and if you find any web site that has a photo of a German Shepherd dog, THATS AN AI or (dummy) that doesn't know anything about the breed.

Do you remember when we all watched television news? One could flip through all the news channels and some key words would be all over them. 12 news stations would say that So and So was "irrelevant" . The same word placed in different sentences would be on every single news station. Did you ever try and figure out why?

Thousands of people are writing books on subjects they know nothing about.

Let the consumer be ware...........

Happy hunting.

The United Kennel Club
History

UKC was founded by Chauncey Z. Bennett, on February 10, 1898, after feeling that other dog registries in existence at the time catered too much to Conformation-only show dog owners or wealthy hobbyists, whom he called "the big city idle rich".

Bennett's goal for UKC was to be a registry that recognized a wide range of breeds, as opposed to some of the working dog registries, which only recognized a handful of breeds. He envisioned UKC-registered dogs occupying a wide range of uses, from working, to companionship, to hunting.
Bennett found a niche among the owners of working dogs, such as herding and hunting dogs.

The first dog registered with UKC was an American Pit Bull Terrier, Bennett's own dog, named Bennett's Ring.
This also made UKC the first registry to recognize the breed.

Starting in 1905, UKC began publishing a journal called Bloodlines, devoted to purebred dogs of all kinds. The journal continued to grow, and in 1974, the journal would split into two distinct magazines.
C**nhound Bloodlines would devote itself to the UKC-recognized C**nhound breeds, while Bloodlines, devoted to all breeds, would continue to publish until it was discontinued in 2015. C**nhound Bloodlines continues to this day.

Bennett continued to run UKC out of his home until his death in 1936.
Upon his death, The New York Herald Tribune credited Bennett with developing breeds such as
"the American Eskimo,
the Columbian (white) Collie,
the Redbone C**nhound,
American Water Spaniel,
American (Pit) Bull Terrier, and the
American Fox and C**n Hound."

While on their trip across North America Lewis and Clark kept notes and all of the notes are in the national archives.
I spent hundreds of hours combing through these archives for ANY notes on the dogs in North America or in Alaska.

The ONLY notes on dogs I found within Lewis and Clarks pages were notes on PRAIRIE DOGS.

If you have the time, please, research dogs for me... So MANY dog breeds claim to be the ''extinct'' dogs of north America or Alaska.

I would love to see PROVE not he said she said rumors where some one makes up some photos and notes they claim to provide as truths.

I would LOVE to see the facts please... Thanks ~Lois Schwarz

Ticking and roan cause spots or hairs with normal color to grow inside areas that were white at birth. A dog can only develop ticking or roan if it has some

The distinctive coat pattern of a Dalmatian is the result of the interaction of several genes. Specifically, it is known the extreme piebald allele of the Piebald locus, in conjunction with the ticked allele of the Ticking locus, and nonflecked allele of the Flecking locus, produces pigmented spots on a white background [1]. The color of the pigmented spots in registered Dalmatians is black or liver [2], but the locus responsible for the color variation has not been identified in the Dalmatian.

Several classic pigmentation loci, such as Agouti, Extension, and Brown, have been characterized at the molecular level. The Brown locus describes tyrosinase related protein 1 (Tyrp1), which controls the production of eumelanin in melanocytes [4]. In the dog, the dominant wild-type allele results in black eumelanin while the recessive brown allele results in brown eumelanin [1]. The Extension locus has been found to be the melanocortin 1 receptor (Mc1r) protein [5], which has an epistatic relationship with the Agouti locus [1]. The epistatic relationship between Agouti and Extension acts as a switch for melanocytes to produce either phaeomelanin or eumelanin, with certain alleles resulting in a red or reddish-brown color.
All Dalmatians are homozygous for the Piebald, Ticking, and Flecking loci (or they would not display the classic spotting pattern) complicating characterization of these loci through standard techniques, such as linkage analysis, since there is not a segregating phenotype to detect. However, black and liver spot color is a detectable phenotype that segregates in Mendelian fashion. The objective of this study was to utilize a previously described multi-generational kindred of Dalmatians [7] to conduct a genome scan and perform linkage analysis to detect linkage between spot color and a microsatellite marker. Detection of linkage will provide insight as to which locus may be responsible for black versus liver in the Dalmatian.

Spot color has been shown to not be associated with deafness in the Dalmatian

Based on the canine genome map [10], the TYRP1 (Brown) locus is at position 50.1 Mb, which is approximately 0.4 Mb from FH2319. Given the recent characterization of TYRP1 genetic variations in the dog [11] and the linkage evidence reported here, TYRP1 is likely responsible for the spot color variation of black versus liver seen in the Dalmatian.

Statistically significant linkage was found between marker FH2319 and spot color in a kindred of Dalmatians. FH2319 is 0.4 Mb from the TYRP1 locus, supporting evidence that its gene product is responsible for the black or liver color of a Dalmatian's spots. Further characterization of TYRP1 in the Dalmatian is warranted to determine the specific genetic variations causative for color variation.

Spot color
Spot color was recorded from the Dalmatian kindred as previously described [7]. There were a total of 139 dogs with black spots (61 males, 78 females) and 60 with liver spots (26 males, 34 females). For the purpose of linkage analysis, spot color was coded as a binary trait with '0' for black and '1' for liver.
