Comment to 'Gaio Del Gheno at 8 Months'
  • you are reading it wrong, maybe I wrote it wrong I am not counting that out 30-35 adult dogs 1 had the hip dysplasia the pups I had one produced by me who had ed and hd there is 92 dogs in the list ( give or take the pups are accurate though ) so that is 2 incidents of dysplasia out of 92 dogs if you count the ocd that is 3 dogs in 92 with joint problems HOD I dont count in this catagory because I felt as if it was nutrition based now 3 dogs out of 92 is not a high rate of a genetic problem your reading it differently then how it should be and concluded inaccurate facts, 26 instances with some that were by injury from 92 dogs is what you have to look at, not a high rate when you look at it how it should. I wouldnt disclude a dog for cherry eye, I am much more worried about HD then a gland, so HD, demodex wouldnt breed, entropian/ectropian would have to research the reason for it occuring a genetic point or enviromental, ocd again would research it nutrition injury or is there a pattern in the lines, bloat I am researching this now, enviromental or genetic worth the risk or no ? thyroid issues is the levels really off is the dog young, old something else going on, a lot of research involved and debating, something serious such as dcm I wouldnt even think about it or hd or demo. Even in the best planned litters things can go wrong, both parents hd free just increases your chance of not having affected offspring, but what happens if you get the grandsire effect and he passed own hd, then all the testing is nul and void and you have hd in a little of pups. No one can guarantee a dog will be genetic issue free all you can do is research test and try and come out on top and if your lucky it comes together like it should sometimes mother nature steps in and you have bad results. If someone could have a health problem free breeding program then they are the 8th wonder of the world
