Boundless Science Season 2: "Wire You Still Talking?" Cross Coat Breeding in Dachshunds

Streaming Science Season 2

Welcome back to the Boundless Science podcast series, brought to you by Streaming Science, a student driven program that works to connect you with scientists to learn how science impacts all of us- and our everyday lives and interests. Tune in to this episode to listen to our host, Marisa Crowhurst, talk with dachshund breeder, enthusiast and professional dog show handler, Arvind deBraganca, about the genetics and beliefs surrounding cross coat breeding in dachshunds. Dachshunds come in three coat varieties: smooth, long and wire (get the title now?), and cross coat breeding is the interbreeding of the three varieties. DeBraganca has been breeding and showing dachshunds for over 20 years and brings incredible insight on this topic. #boundlessscience #season2 #BoundlessScienceseason2
