Barb, that's all well and good and easy to follow when speaking about  one 
"issue", in your example Mega, but we're trying to breed away from more than  
one health "issue" while trying to breed good temperaments and pretty (correct) 
 
structure.  I study pedigrees too, and in all honesty, I don't know of any  
that are absolutely clear of EVERYTHING I'd like to avoid.  Let's see, does  
anyone have a four generation pedigree where the breeding partners AND siblings 
 
NEVER  had or produced HD, ED, UAP, FCP, OCD, bloat, heart defects,  toxic 
gut, torsion, epilepsy, pancreatic insufficiency, mega, DM...etc., etc.,  
etc...(It's a rhetorical question ~ IF you think you have such a pedigree, I'll 
 bet 
I can show you where your don't!).
