In this episode of Outside the Kennel, we break down canine DNA and genetics in a way breeders and dog owners can actually understand. From fluffy genes and coat length to shedding traits and hidden carriers, we dive deep into what these DNA reports really mean — and what they don’t.

We talk about dominant vs recessive traits, why two dogs with the same DNA markers can still look different, and how genetics influence coat type, shedding, structure, and overall breeding decisions. Whether you’re new to breeding or already deep into the game, this episode helps simplify the science behind the dogs.

If you’ve ever looked at a DNA panel and thought, “What does all this actually mean?” — this episode is for you.
