All the pups carry the coat factor.  The sire's influence is phenotypical, that 
is, the pups, themselves, will NOT be long-coats; their genotype will be 1/2 
long coat factor, 1/2 normal coat factor.

A friend of mine bred his long coat bitch to a male who had no coat factor.
As expected the bitch had a nice large healthy litter with no coats.
He is keeping one of the males and someone told him that all the puppies
in the litter will carry the coat because the dam was a coat.  I thought the 
sire had some influence?

Should he have the male checked for the long coat or just accept the fact 
that all the puppies carry the coat factor due to the long coat dam?

Thanks Di
