That 'groove' can be shallow and NOT have the patella luxating...YET
So, the parents can have a shallow groove, but just by luck, the ligements that are holding the patella in place are very strong for them - thus, showing NO Luxating Patella - BUT still having the genetic makeup for the Patellas to be able to Luxate - Get it? |
