Wow !!! I really would like to hear the experts response to this question.
The way that I understand it, if it is a simple straight recessive gene, you
should get all coats. The premise would be that both the sire and dam
exhibit long coat. Since the short/correct coat is dominant over long coat,
we
have to assume the dam and the sire do not carry the short/correct coat gene.
Hence the puppies should be all long coats.
However, if coat is not a simple recessive gene then all bets are off.
Lets hear other opinions.
