Caption: University of Utah biologists K. Gordon Lark and Kevin Chase were part of a multi-institutional team that identified ancient genetic material responsible for making small dogs small. Here, Chase plays with his toy poodle-Maltese mixes, Bonbon and Fille, while Lark's medium-sized Portugese water dog, Mopsa, rests at Chase's feet.
