Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color; but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be the emergence of characteristics such as deafness. A 1992 study of Dalmatians (by Strain and others, as reported in The Dalmatians Dilemma) found the following: (i) 31% of all Dalmatians have blue eyes. (ii) 38% of all Dalmatians are deaf.
