It's a satire site.......... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I think that most people knew it was a gag. It's kinda like that site called the "Onion" , where they post authoritative sounding gag posts... Of course, had they just posted the part about the Chihuahuas...... I would have consider it the truth! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> The Fetz dog: http://www.leerburg.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/79673/page/25

Doggone! Gene Research Leads to Surprises for Dog Lovers From the article ... Another surprise was that German Shepherds, which might have been expected to be in the ancient group because of their resemblance to wolves, actually were a much closer match to the cluster of mastiff-type dogs, such as the bull mastiff, the bulldog and the Rottweiler. A third group included herding dogs, such as the collie and the sheepdog, but also some unexpected members, such as the greyhound. The last group included terriers and scent-tracking hounds, such as spaniels, terriers and setters.
