I believe there is a "wild recessive gene" in temperament - too much
"wolf" genes in the dog. Case: a puppy that just was not in to new
people, new places - but when he saw me - he went absolutely NUTZ (and
he had not seen me for a year or more since he was about 8 weeks old)

I've kept two girl pups from our last litter and they have straight ears,
but I don't know if they are wild ears or not... But speaking of genetics,
and things being wild, they are little hellions at 6 months old. Our
puppies are not usually that way and neither of their parents are. Does
this mean that my lines carry the wild recessive gene? :)
BTW, a discussion about kibble versus raw wouldn't be the same without Ed :)
