Liver Shunt is a genetic health issue regardless and if your breeding it you are unethical to your breeding program and the buying public as with any other genetic health issue. Plain and simple!

This may be on or off topic, I'm not sure...
But because you aren't sure which ancestor gave any of the genetic effects, would you stay away from all of the lines in their lineage? (Only if you can't find the relative that gave the effect)
