bigainbuilt,

What is the point of breeding 7 generations of a cross just to wind up with a 99.22% catahoula? Might as well just breed pure cats. Unless the idea is to capture certain qualities from the bulldog and making sure they are passed on as dominate traits. Wouldn't this make this line a different breed? In my mind I think that it would be a different strain of cats, otherwise why do it. I think this is a good question, maybe someone has a good theory or answer. If part of the answer is to capture certain qualities from the bulldog, will this change the 99.22% cat back to a lower number? Inquiring minds want to know....
By the way, I like your math skills...
