GENETIC TYPE AND THE EXDOCRIXES 609 



Behavior classification of bassethound-shepherd F 2 s. If 

 there are greater differences in physical form among- the 

 F 2 s than among the F x s, and form and behavior are cor- 

 related or linked in any way, there should also be greater 

 variety in behavioral characteristics among the F 2 s. The 

 behavioral classification, along with the bodily types, are 

 shown in text-figure 107. Three of the F L > animals are con- 

 sidered thin bodied and four round bodied. Animals 1811 & 

 and 1812 6 are classified as A-plus. They are similar in

every respect to the F t s 246 9 and 251 6 , the well balanced 

 type referred to above. Animal 1152 $ , a long legged dog- 

 below the average for bodily index and thus classified as 

 thin bodied, falls into the B-minus group. This is the dog 

 used so successfully in differentiation experiments and con- 

 sidered a well balanced type, although behaviorally more like 

 the shepherd than the bassethound. In contrast to this ani- 

 mal, another long legged member of the group, 867 i , was
