Almost 16 years ago I whelped a litter from which I kept a bitch with an 
umbilical hernia.  When she matured, the hernia was the size of a large 
walnut.
    She finished from Bred By Exhibitor, and had four litters during her 
lifetime.  The hernia didn't interfere with anything.
    I lose that bitch this past spring...

Her half brother, who was a year younger, had a hernia just like hers...he 
was my best stud dog...
the hernia never interfered with him, either.
