Show off your Dog, Ultimate 4Runner Dog thread

Shitty week in Dallas. 4R performed flawless in 4H. My dog loved every second of it. Leaving for AZ/Utah in 3 weeks.

Great looking dog, but that's not how their coloration works. The colors don't mix depending on the parents color, they come out as what genes are dominant and which are recessive.

I know this after a woman I know swears up and down her dog was specifically part chocolate lab, and science be damned, that was the only color she was mixed with.

Labs have two genes that control colors. one gene controls color the way a switch controls a light: turns it on or off. If that gene is recessive, you have a yellow lab. Otherwise, brown or black will dominate. So, a yellow lab may be either brown or black; just that the color is turned off.

Edited to correct my stupid spelling/typing!!:gun6::gun6::gun6:

Just one of the 2 1/2 things I remember from a genetics class in grad school!

Don't have any pics yet (We're going up the hill to the ski resort on Sunday and taking some pics!)

Faith, our Pointing Griffon, is large enough to set off the seat belt alarm, so she has to ride in the back!

Nice! We have a new pup, and the first thing I looked for was a durable mesh net that would cover the rear window so I could have it open, but not worry about a young dog jumping out.

Anyone know of anything like this? I think I could modify a cargo net, but thought maybe there was already a product out there.
 
This is my co-pilot, Bragi. He's chunky, but will go anywhere just like my 4runner.

New to T4R...only had our 2019 Limited "Nightshade for just over a week and the covers haven't come in yet...so dogs are still banned from it...
Our 2 kids are "Maya" 10+ years Border Collie/Wolf mix rescue...sweetest bestest most loyal and lovin dog ever...
Then there's "Jax"...our 2+ yo Pit / border collie mix...abused and kept in a crate for 18 hours a day his first 6 months...we managed to convince the nice (but clueless) owner that she's be better off if we took him...fast forward 2 years and he's the sweetest, shyest most energetic pup ever...scared of everything so a great guard dog but not much for company...
