Drop ears are genetically dominant and would prevail in a coyote/dog mating *unless* the dog were naturally prick-eared.

You're so right. Remember that ongoing experiment in Russia on the domestication of foxes? As Russian scientists bred foxes for more compliant personalities, they acquired floppy ears.

Yes I do.

Something about domestication cause dogs to revert to a perpetual state of puppyhood, displaying “puppy traits”.

Domestic dogs are eternally infantilized wolves.
