stupid question - Page 4

Sorry, it has been a very long time since I worked for Annie, she was an awesome person to know and work with. Mind you she kept her breeding lines quiet. I know her son and daughter very well I may see if they recall or have any documentation available. Please do not hold it to me as they may have not have the information at hand.

Just wanted to say this, Annie was a true natural she housed a large wolf on the property that wolf adored her just as much as she adored him. Yup, she worked with him and he went off to a tv show as well. She was one of a kind I can assure you.

A white german shepherd bred to a solid black german shepherd. The white gene is dominant over the recessive solid black gene. Breeding a white will show what the white german shepherd is carrying for. Theres also the chance that the white and the recessive black dog both carry for the same colours. So in that case if one of the puppies was solid black then that means the white carries for solid black. and if there is a white puppy it means the solid black carries for white. Breeding a white to a solid black will NOT make any dog have random spots. The only spotting that can be found on a dog would be the white spotting gene which is common in alot of shepherds but isnt in any way related to the actual gene that makes white shepherds solid white. Most of the puppies will probably be the colours of what the white shepherd is carrying for. So whatever colours in the pedigree of the white shepherd are the colours most likely to show up in the litter of this pair.

Thanks, Candis!  Apparently, Chuck wanted to keep the lines secret, too. Since Tina Barber (Shiloh breed founder) used them in her breeding, I've asked her, and was told Chuck had made her swear not to reveal what they were. That's what made me wonder if they really were purebred GSD's.

I guess they didn't want the dogs to be exploited by unscrupulous breeders, who would have charged thousands of dollars for 'real' Littlest Hobo pups.

I know the one females registered name and that would have been Littlest Hobo Princess she was a full sister to London. She was a real sweet girl had loads of attitude but when she loved you she loved you. And your right to many would have exploited the dogs.. I wish I had bought one when I had a chance but when there's not enough money in your back pocket its best to let it go.
