Revised questionnaire inheritance of hair of CC

The revised questionnaire about the inheritance of hair of CC is online now. The previous version already got a lot of response, but more response is needed to estimate more precise

The aim of this questionnaire is to obtain more insight on the inheritance of hair of these dogs. Because everyone has a preference for a particular hair type, (i.e. true of hairy hairless) it is useful to predict the hair type of puppies based on visible hair characteristics of the parenting dogs. This is only possible if a lot of you fill in the questionnaire, the more people respond the more reliable the predictions will be. This research is also helpful for further investigation of DNA of Chinese crested dogs.

Based on the data I already have, it seems I can contradict some of the claims Roy Robinson made in his article in 1985. This may mean that we based our knowledge on an article that has some error. To be more precise about the dispute, I need more data.

Please fill out the questionnaire on inheritance of hair here:
