I wouldn't breed to him for just for that reason--the babies would have 50/50
chance of being carriers.
You're right though, I should have said the male was a CARRIER not that he
HAD DM...but either way I still wouldn't breed to him. I'd find another nice
dog who wasn't a carrier. I have a hard time believing that there would ever
have to be a choice between breeding away from serious health problems like DM
and making nice babies.
