Dogs like ... water clean or muddy ... going for a drive ... smells worth sniffing ...
furry things that run the other way ... napping 20 hours a day ...

Nellie, the beauty who allegedly peed around the perimeter and kept us safe from bears, as soft (silky?) a coat as I've ever encountered.
Great/fascinating stuff, big sis! Is there any charted genetic differences between T-shells and Calicos? My understanding is that it's a matter of how much white is in the admix.

Well, Lois, I hope this hijack is as interesting to at least a few others as to us.
As far as enviro stuff goes, I have (anecdotally) observed more Torties in the midwest than in CA-colder winters/more humid summers?
I have had calicos appear from a line of t-shells. Ben-her (a t-shell), begat Geronimo (also a t), who begat Anthony (a Calico.) Both B-H and G were feasome hunters (I remember B-h dragging home a rabbit that was larger than she was) G nabbed a flying squirrel once. Anthony, on the other hand, was special. Not smart; couldn't avoid rain, even in california, fell in the pool more than once. I think she was nearsighted, as well. I once watched her jump up from a piano bench and miss the piano. This is not a staement about all calicos but I often wondered if her 'smart' genes were somehow diluted.
