I don't buy the "inbred dogs have them".  It's a recessive gene.  My last 
litter of 11 - 5 had them.  And that litter was just about the farthest you can 
get from inbred.  :-)  I knew dad carried a gene for it, but I didn't know 
about momma as there wasn't any in any litter I had seen out of her dam or her 
grandam.  I can place it back to her paternal grandsire (a Conan Survival son) 
as I have seen other kids and grandkids out of him that had them, but were 
different bloodlines.

 I was recently told that dogs who have been "inbred" are more prone to have 
them. Does everyone else agree with this? This information comes from a very 
well known GSD breeder in Central Florida.
