It’s lengthy but well worth the time. http://www.maddiesfund.org/the-evolution-of-adoption-programs-part-1.htm?p=1DC3EF7C-EB26-44C3-82DA-DC7788120F3F

Especially ridiculous considering the generic appearance that is so common. Behavior related genes may never be understood. The way they interact and produce behaviors is so much harder to understand because of the sheer number of them and the exponential interactions they cause.

There are 5 genes that control head shape. A similarly small number for hair expressions etc. The genetic makeup of a dogs appearance is the extreme minority of genes in a dog and are very limited. The genes associated with a “pit bull” appearance are dominant. This is why so many dogs of mixes have short hair and blocky heads. A boxer mix, Great Dane mix etc with a very different looking dog will most often yield that “pit bull look” though there is nothing remotely pit bull about it.
