Do you own a Great Dane?

holding cut info here

Understand what the author wanted to say but as written this is untrue:

Each purebred dog has particular health problems that are more common in its breed than in others. Some of these concerns are due to recessive genes that are more likely to "show" in animals that come from related ancestors. Other problems are simply associated with the typical physical features characteristic of a breed.

Cutting and holding here so the thought doesn't get lost: needs to be reworked and placed in dog: health, at Dog/Draft

Reaching out for collaboration

Aleta, I don't know what your previous experience in wiki writing has been. I myself had little to none before I started writing on CZ several months ago. Here there are few or no anonymous "authors", if you look back on the history page, I started this article from scratch. There have been only a couple of other contributors. As one of the biology editors, we had a number of people with common interestes writing articles, and ended up having a lively collaboration, that included pointing out references to each other and many conversations ob our talk pages. I would live to have that with you -and others interested and knowlegable about dogs. So, what are trhe inaccuracies that you are concerned with? I'd like to discus them, and perhaps if I make the biology clearer you can make the wording clearer.Nancy Sculerati 09:02, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
