[quote=Spacehuman;855864]It may be 'more likely' but by such a small percentage (i.e. from 0.01% to 0.015%) as to be meaningless compared to all the other factors that go into determining temperament.

I'd say it's more likely for blue dogs to display temperment issues due to bad breeding. That's one thing the show has right. It's only natural when color is the number one goal of a breeder

There's no factor greater than genes at determining temperament. All the training in the world won't help a dog that never had a chance to begin with. It's no coincidence that a large number of poorly bred mutts she sees of this "breed" are blue. The fact that we all see so many blue "pit bulls" should be cause for alarm as the color should be rare. This fact alone tells you that the majority of those dogs are bred for one thing, color.
