We would like to think that, that is a given, but it is not. there are breeders who will breed for looks without any concern for what is going on on the inside.
I'd much rather have a non-standard that is healthy than one who looks great but is not sound. |
You're absolutely correct; health should always come first. I would pick a healthy dog anytime, and that was my
primary concern in choosing a breeder.
