Dog crossbreeds considered hypoallergenic (e.g., goldendoodles) are popular. Maintaining genetics to prevent shedding, thus remaining hypoallergenic, takes careful consideration. The non-shedding allele is dominant (A) to the shedding allele (a), and must be present to assure hypoallergenic status. Double-recessive pups cannot be sold as hypoallergenic. If both parents are heterozygous for the shedding allele, what genotype and phenotype outcomes would you expect? If 8 pups were born, how many would be non-shedding? Why?
