How they can not be a Brindle Coloration in the TRUE PURE PUG,GENES BROKEN DOWN TO EXPLAIN HOW Pugs DO NOT CARRY THE BRINDLE GENE, |

| Description: |
one C gene. It is suspected that the apricot fawns carry ayay with the C gene. The true silver color is ayay with probably the cch allele instead of the C (ayay BB cch cch DD EmEm gg SS tt) so it is easy to see how difficult it would be to have a true silver, as the cch gene is very difficult to find in Pugs at all, let alone to find two and mate them. White spots on Pugs (fawns also have white spots) are the result of the dog carrying one of the s modifying genes, rather than the S gene.
Now, let us talk about the pesky brindle color, and how it cannot occur in a purebred Pug. First, the working of the ayay gene produces the red or tan or fawn coat (in this case). The Em is dominant to the plain E and plain e as well. That means that dogs
which carry EmEm, EmE and Eme will all appear to be the same: fawn with a black mask. Only by having breeding records of the parents and their offspring could you determine which specific gene a specific dog carries.
The allele A for black coat, coupled with the brindle gene ebr will produce black solid dogs, since A conceals the brindle gene. The brindle gene, ebr, when found in conjunction with an Em will ALWAYS show up as a dog with brindle markings and a black mask. The combinations of Eebr or ebr ebr will produce the brindle without a black mask, or brindle all over. However, ANYTIME the ebr gene is present even if there is just one - the dog will have a visible brindle coat color. That means you cannot have a recessive brindle, you cannot have a “hidden” brindle gene - unless it is in a solid black dog that masks the gene. However, any dog with a brindle gene that is not black will show the brindle coloration. Therefore, when someone tells you they bred a fawn sire to a fawn dam and got a brindle puppy... it cannot happen genetically. Some other dog, which does carry the brindle gene, MUST have been the sire if the dam is a fawn Pug. Pugs have carried only the Em gene for over one hundred years (that is, every dog has EmEm) and this was demonstrated during test breedings back in the nineteen-forties under controlled scientific conditions. So dogs with the brindle gene today must have been introduced from another breed carrying the ebr gene, making it a crossbred dog.
Pugs of color also means some the genes are not right or they are of a different Mother or Father,.if you had a human child that was different from the normal, would you not want to have this child tested to find out what health issues might be hidden. I would and if people really care about this breed, they would have all the testing that could be done, to find out what went wrong from the normal Pug color. I have been with these little fur babies for a long time; I have learned a lot about and from them and if I could live another century I still would have a so much to learn. What I am trying to tell people is get to know the breed, learn about any breed you bring into your home, do not be taken by some sharp talking DOG rip-off scammer person.
Do not think Pugs do not SHED, THEY DO; Three Hundred and Sixty Five DAYS A YEAR. If they do not, you do not have a Pug. People out here are telling so many lies. For your own sake, tell the truth. |
