Newbies should also know that just because a dog is OFA all round, it doesn't mean that he/she won't produce HD and ED. Dogs CARRY for HD and ED. On the other hand, the "hypothetical" 4-legged dysplastic dog might NOT be a carrier and in fact, might never produce his own problems. Isn't breeding interesting? Penny in NC The Farm Dog forever ******************************************************** Reminder - before anyone gets out of sorts this ENTIRE thread is about a hypothetical (not real) situation. So before any rumors get started I am not looking to breed a 4-legged dysplastic dog. Just looking for suggestions for protocols for any newbies who may be lurking on the list. daphne hereford Owner/Breeder RIN TIN TIN Line Dogs www.HollywoodDogs.com ============================================================================ ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2012.
