A non-dog-lover-friend of mine (yes we are still friends) fell in love with Diesel, a bulldog in her neighborhood. He was a handsome and sweet dog who made friends on his daily walks. Why did my non-dog-lover-friend make an exception for Diesel? Why do we favor a certain breed over another? Do we choose dogs like ourselves or are we attracted to the opposite personality?…

This increase in homozygosity is what causes the increased susceptibility to disease in many pedigree breeds. This is displayed through the bearded collie, which has an average inbreeding coefficient of 14.9%, higher than the equivalent of a grandparent and grandchild mating (12.5%).
