I don't want to enter into a discussion about tail genetics - but i would like to collect pictures of brittanys with tails - to get an idea of tail carriage etc. would be very grateful if anyone who has them could post them up and pleas could i then cross post them to the Brittany Club Forum and Web Gallery. As a resource. _________________ Guy; Ellie Topaz Catja. http://www.epagneulbreton.org.uk
hmmm only those I had posted - but i see the gallery has become corrupted and they seem to have all gone! along with nearly all the others. _________________ Guy; Ellie Topaz Catja. http://www.epagneulbreton.org.uk
don't know how or why corrupted- I can see them 'listed' in the admin area but cannot at moment see the pictures. Do not have a backup of them. will not have time to look at problem until at least late next week - day job is getting in the way!!! _________________ Guy; Ellie Topaz Catja. http://www.epagneulbreton.org.uk

Photos will be coming of Belle and Allez's babies born this morning - 2 bobtail boys and 1 long tail girl - she's black and white, boys are liver and white - might all be tricolours though, it's difficult to tell till around 3 to 4 weeks, sometimes later.
First photos taken of the boys bums when they were born aren't very clear so will try again and post later
Looks like that's all, so I have three people going to be unhappy, 4 if I keep one. Quite a quandary - at least there are other pups available, pity they are down in bottom of England
Mum seems fine and Dad ate a hearty breakfast!

Quote:
"THE KENNEL Club has acceded to requests from the Brittany Club of Great Britain and the Swedish Vallhund Society to record on registration certificates puppies born with naturally bobbed tails.
This positive move was made in order to help breeders identify which dogs or lines carry the tailless gene.
The status of the tail length is to be recorded behind the name of the breed, for example Swedish Vallhund (bobtail).
The word bobtail is the only description of the tail which will be accepted, the KC says.
The description of any other tail length or tails which are not naturally bobbed, such as ‘full tail’ or ‘legally docked’ will not be recorded. If breeders want bobtail to be recorded on the registration certificate, confirmation of the tail status of puppies must be accompanied by veterinary certification on the practice’s headed paper and sent with the litter registration form."
I have asked if retrospective amendments may be made to registrations, but I imagine they'll say no.
