Instructions
A  Dog  may  be  man's  best  friend.  But  man  is  not  always  a  dog's.  Over  the  centuries    breeding  has  pulled  at  the  canine  body  shape  to  produce  what  is  often  a  grotesque  distortion  of  the  underlying  wolf.  Indeed,  some  of  these  distortions  are,  when  found  in  people,  regarded  as  .  Dog  breeding  does,  though,  offer  a  chance  to  those  who  would  like  to  understand  how  body  shape  is  controlled.  The  ancestry  of  pedigree  pooches  is  well  recorded,  their  generation  time  is  short  and  their    size  reasonably  large,  so  there  is  plenty  of  material  to  work  with.  ,  breeds  are,  by  definition,  inbred,  and  this  simplifies  genetic  analysis.  Those  such  as  Elaine  Ostrander,  of  America's  National  Human  Genome  Research  Institute,  who  wish  to  identify  the  genetic  basis  of  the  features  of  particular  pedigrees  thus  have  an    experimental  animal.
