I think that Houston was one of the greatest dogs I have ever seen. I never 
bred to Houston, because of his hip status. I regret it to this day. You have 
to look at the whole package and weigh your options.  there is no perfect dog.

But what good is that movement if his hips are bad!?


If the hips were that bad he would not be able to move. We are not talking 
about crippling HD. We are talking about a dog who JUST did not make it. When 
he came to live here at Eko-Lan I had him re x-rayed so that I would know what 
I was working with. They would not pass but they were not that bad he was 
about a OFA fair minus minus. This dog had so much to offer the breed it would 
have been criminal not to use him. 
This reminds me of another story I had a bitch being shipped in to breed to 
my CH Paladen I got the bitch out of the crate and she had hound dog ears 
Had the bitch belonged to anyone else I would have shipped her back UNBRED but 
she belonged to Fran-Jo kennels so I took the time to look at this bitch 
other than the ears she was awsome. I bred the bitch and in the litter was GVX 
Tatta of Fran-Jo. 
Don't throw the baby out with the bath water.
PS the fords knew what they were doing. As always
