  • Title: Genetic studies of cleft lip and palate in dogs.
    Author: Cooper HK, Mattern GW.
    Journal: Birth Defects Orig Artic Ser; 1971 Jun; 7(7):98-100. PubMed ID: 5173250.
    Abstract:
    In a colony of Shih-Tzu dogs, familial cleft palate frequently associated with hind leg deformity was demonstrated. Colonies of dogs centered around purebred wirehaired terrier females or a mongrel collie male, both with isolated cleft palate did not result in cleft offspring with one exception. Reproductive fitness of a low order was encountered as expected. Difficulty was experienced in raising affected animals. Multiple associated congenital anomalies were found. These include convulsive disorders, clubfoot and dysgenesis of musculature of the thigh.
