Why do some people smoke, and get lung cancer at age 40....and others smoke,
and get lung cancer at age 80? Why do some people get lung cancer and never
smoke? .....We (our dogs included) are part genetics, part environment.
IMO, those who want to lay all of our dogs' problems on genetics ALONE have
their head in the sand.....Also, those who want to lay all of our dogs'
problems on environment ALONE have their head in the sand too....We all must
do whatever we can do to breed healthy puppies that live healthy lives....
However if you get too hung up on it, you might as well quit breeding. A
litter of 100% healthy pups that live 100% healthy lives has probably never
happened. If it has, it's very rare....Thanks to genetics *and*
environment.
