Is it possible dogs that tested DM clear, may often be seen with DM as very 
senior dogs upon necropsy?  Is it possible that we are dealing with two types 
of DM?  One that attacks young
dogs prematurely and can be seen genetically, verses one that appears much 
later in life and may
be caused due to arthritis?   Twenty-seven years ago I lost part of one litter 
to DM.  It is a disease
to be fought aggressively with all tools at our disposal and never to be 
ignored, unless you like 
holding the head of your year old puppy as he gently takes his last breath in 
your arms.

I posted this before and I"m not going to belabor the point. Go to the OFA
ebsite. They admit to at least 2 dogs already that tested clear but
ecropsy proved they had DM. There is plenty of evidence that this test is
nreliable, Kathy and I have spent a lot of time looking into this as
hould any responsible breeder. We all need to do our homework.
oing the testing may cause you to make bad decisions and give you and
uppy buyers false hopes.

 It is time for someone to provide proof of that statement.

 It is easy to make a statement. What proof is there that the test is
 unreliable?

 It has been posted that it is.  That is nothing but an opinion.
