I am in a similar situation as you Muleman. The AB I have is about 2years old and has been in a pet home. I have learned NOT to send her with a experinced catchdog because the other dog will do the heavy holding and allows the new dog to hold where ever it wants with no reprecussions, encouraging the unwanted behavior.
On the Genetic thing: I dont think it will be passed but I could be wrong. The 2 catch dogs I have are full sisters. One is a natural ear clamper, (has been since 7mo) that I raised the other just saw its first hog(dog mentioned above) and is very excitable. I think it is the way the dogs were raised NOT GENETIC.
