It might also be helpful if a list is created to include overshot, undershot or rye mouth. -----Original Message----- From: edangsd@xxxxxxxxxxx To: Pinehillgsds@xxxxxxx; GSDLady28@xxxxxxx; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Fri, 2 Mar 2007 8:48 AM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Missing teeth list? I was told by Dr Ben Comery, who taught at Cornell in Dentristy for 10 years and is board certified that teeth are hereditary by placement. I believe both have to carry gene for #3 missing or #1 missing, etc. If both don't carry gene for specific missing tooth, there will be no missing tooyh, but the progeny could carry the gene.

If not, maybe we can begin to compile one? Maggie Marshall Wouldn't it depend on the bitch too, so maybe you're looking for general "lines" that don't "usually" produce missing teeth. After all, if theoretically I breed one of my boys to a bitch with missing teeth and there is a puppy in the litter affected, I wouldn't want his name showing up on a list somewhere. I've always though the best step to take when not familiar with a line was to speak to the owners of a particular dog directly and ask "is there anything I need to worry about?".
