FB 26. Noting Sheila Cartwright’s update on the fate of the JKD petition on pedigree release, I have felt compelled to look over the pedigrees I hold to see how many are publishable. It has been quite intriguing looking at them again after some 5 years but the first 40 are pretty depressing, as a number have missing veterinary and other evidence. I am trying to resolve these even now. However, despite the gaps, the pedigree picture remains impressive and this alone should convince anyone that JKD is inherited. I am now up to around the 60 case mark and the quality of the data is much better, but there are still so many more to go. What has struck me however is that the distribution of cases is shifting. At the start it was exclusively the top championship show section that suffered JKD, but of late this has diminished. Most of the main producers have indeed gone. However, it is now the section of the breed which is simply producing nice Boxers, that is suffering, and also the pet breeding section. A potential trouble for me is that these sections have no central body to represent them even though numerically they are the majority groups in the breed
