"He's probably X and she's probably Y" just wasn't good enough for me.smazourekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029180368325070266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328400195245615907.post-81514995017301847802011-04-20T07:54:47.700-05:002011-04-20T07:54:47.700-05:00Hi!

I applaud you for being responsible about your breeding practices and appreciate you bringing this topic to light. I am unfamiliar with Paints and their genetics, but I love to learn new things!Michellehttp://www.fromthehorsesback.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328400195245615907.post-71863486363905217192011-04-20T07:26:37.280-05:002011-04-20T07:26:37.280-05:00:-( very sad.

I actually did a Biology project on OLWS last semester, so I understand the disease fairly well from a genetic point of view, but your experience is the real eye-opener. I've never met an OLWS baby, and I hope to never have to. People need to be responsible and definitely get there horses tested if they plan on breeding.Marehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16127842562111344534noreply@blogger.com
