Color of a dog

Do you think the color of a dog effects the ability of a dogs performance in certain climates or temperatures?

 

Lol tell that to ch merengue and atown lol

 

@ fonzie
what about an all white dog with black eyes, black nose and maybe black nails ?

 

That dog Joe in my pics is all white and he is one of the last dogs u want to mess with

 

I like this fondue character

 

Dont listen to him- i think he justs post to read himself! Lol............although i do that someyimes myself........but hey atleast im amusing when i talk shit! Lol

 

Yeah Fonzie something else. We should have a poll up and vote what we think he is : Fed , AmBully, Game Dogman just messing with us, kid with an AmStaff, gothic chic, or alter ego of another participant here.

Color means nothing but remember hearing that the black ones tire quicker. This is bs and was said by a old stubborn man stuck in his ways but still a belief believed by some and not just with APBT. I forget which facts they use but they twist some shit around or really in their heart of hearts believe because it makes sense simpleton to simpleton.

 

Who knows lol

 

Its prolly jelets alter ego! Lol

 

White= weak, just like white pointers and polar bears.And Brock Lesnar.

 

Seriously? Or are you just bein sarcastic? Lol

 

I know white dogs tend to be more suseptable to melonoma & deffness. But i aint never heard no shit about white bulldogs being physically weaker

 

I think he's probably just basing that off of the white dog in his pic. When dog barks for another biscuit he considers it stomach weakness and blames it on the white part but when it pulls him around on leash he attributes this deep dead game trait to the brindle pArt because that's the Colby part of the dog. Fonzie should start his own bloodline.

 

Got a white one here. Strong as and ox and no health problems at all.. Turned out to be a nice one so far..

Is there even scien tific evidence that shows proof of the whit dog-def blind thing?

 

Think he saying the white dogs tend to have more skin and hair problems or it just takes a littel ex effert to keep the coat nice,not annnything to do with a weak dog.
My all white mia is a hand full no weakness there.

 

LoL Let's play the color game

White= Chuck Norris
Buckskin/yellow = Bruce Lee
Black= Mike Tyson

 

Yes in some cases and instances

Congenital deafness has been reported for approximately 85 breeds, with the list growing at a regular rate (see list); it can potentially appear in any breed but especially those with white pigmentation. Deafness may have been long-established in a breed but kept hidden from outsiders to protect reputations. The disorder is usually associated with pigmentation patterns, where the presence of white in the hair coat increases the likelihood of deafness. Two pigmentation genes in particular are often associated with deafness in dogs: the merle gene (seen in the collie, Shetland Sheepdog, Dappled Dachshund, Harlequin Great Dane, American Foxhound, Old English Sheepdog, and Norwegian Dunkerhound among others) and the piebald gene (Bull Terrier, Samoyed, Greyhound, Great Pyrenees, Sealyham Terrier, Beagle, Bulldog, Dalmatian, English Setter). However, not all breeds with these genes have been reported to be affected. The deafness, which usually develops in the first few weeks after birth while the ear canal is still closed, usually results from the degeneration of part of the blood supply to the cochlea (the stria vascularis). The nerve cells of the cochlea subsequently die and permanent deafness results. The cause of the vascular degeneration is not known, but appears to be associated with the absence of pigment producing cells (melanocytes) in the blood vessels. All of the function of these cells are not known, but one role is to maintain high potassium concentrations in the fluid (endolymph) surrounding the hair cells of the cochlea; these pigment cells are critical for survival of the stria. Deafness in the Doberman, which is also accompanied by vestibular (balance) disturbance, results from a different mechanism, where hair cell death is not the result of degeneration of the stria but is instead the primary cause. Deafness may also occur later in life in dogs from other causes such as toxicities, infections, or injuries, or due to aging (presbycusis); these forms of deafness almost never have a genetic cause in animals and thus do not present a concern in breeding decisions.
