I wouldn't breed either the bitch w/ all of the siblings w/ orthopedic
issues who just squeaked by on her OFAs (described below) nor would I breed
the surviving bitch w/ all of the siblings who bloated.
I learned a long time ago, you evaluate a litter according to the LEAST
puppy in that litter. Neither of the bitches described below would be worth
breeding IMO.

Mesenteric Torsion is GENETIC
They have know that for years in Humans, horses, cows and very other breed
of dog - it isn't
until recently that they are now including the GSD
However, Bloat is familial. They have not found the way it is passed on,
nor how HD is passed
on - that might be because it is a three gene triat or there is a gene
that turns it on - not basic
genetics on those two problems
However, I find it more interesting to look at the horizontal pedigree
than the vetical one
Let's say LITTER A is a litter of 8 GSDs -4 male and 4 female 6 of the
litter ( 3 males and 3
females) have crippling HD by age 2 and one male is not tested, and one
female just barely
passes her ofa. This one female is then bred.
The discussion is
WOULD YOU HAVE BRED THIS BITCH and WHY or WHY NOT
LET'S TALK BITTER B. LITTER B is a litter of 8 GSDs -4 male and 4 female
6 of the litter ( 3
males and 3 females) BLOAT BY AGE 2. One Male dies, cause unknown.
WOULD YOU HAVE BRED THIS BITCH and WHY or WHY NOT
