The GP pup is cute! Now we need pictures of the catahoula pup! I personally don't see many of this breed around so would love to see a cute puppy picture of one.

I will get a pic asap. I haven't actually picked one yet. I went & looked at them and my buddy who has them was out of town. His wife said he wants to keep one, but wasn't sure which one, etc,etc,etc. I will go back this weekend and try to get one picked out.

Does anyone know why so many domestic animals are white, black, or black and white?
is colour a trait that early people selected for when they domesticated critters?

 

[CocoNUT]

I'm going to venture on a limb and say that white was definitely a color that was selected for through breeding in livestock. In nature, anything white is easily seen - therefore making it more vulnerable to predation. (Except of course if you're in a snowy environment.)

Black is much less harder to see or make out...black cats literally 'disappear' into the bush or even the house! Some scientists argue that the first color mutation (in cats) was black. It provided more camoflauge in the wild - like stripes or spots.

I'm sure someone with more extensive knowlege can provide more information.
