What are your thoughts on yellow coat color being that it is also recessive? Yes, they're recessive to black. However, by about 75-85% based off of the numbers I'm seeing, they're far more dominant than chocolate. Fewer recessive traits equates to fewer recessive trait by products.

I’ve heard most chocolate labs are closet homosexuals and practice deviant unprotected sexual behavior.

Yes, related to dogs who carry the dilute gene specifically. Again, there is no genetic disease or disorder directly linked to the chocolate coat color.

The fact that certain genetic traits are related to coat colors proves the idea that coat color can be tied to genetic problems. Since this is the first study showing chocolates tend to live a shorter more disease prone life I can understand the hesitation to 'believe' the study's conclusions. But just because the study didn't conclude there was a specific disease identified or disorder doesn't mean the conclusions are false. I agree this study will need to be replicated in order to add to the validity, but based on the sample size and who conducted the study, I wouldn't be surprised if this study will be replicated in several other countries.

They concluded that the issues were due to a limited gene pool in that area not due to the coat color specifically...
