    Author: Wisselink MA, Bouw J, der Weduwen SA, Willemse A.
    Journal: Vet Q; 1989 Jul; 11(3):161-4. PubMed ID: 2781707.
    Abstract:
    In this study the pedigrees of 42 German Shepherd dogs with German Shepherd dog Pyoderma (GSP) were analysed. Parents, littermates and offspring of the affected dogs were traced and their owners were questioned on characteristic skin lesions. Evidence suggesting an autosomal recessive trait was found. Breeders are advised to exclude affected animals and their relatives from further breeding.
