The best thing that most people can do, is have their pet spayed and neutered and LOVE them to pieces as the PET they deserve to be  |
Or because they are beautiful dogs and show breeders will champion them so they can sell the pup for more money, while knowing that they carry a genetic defect.
A champion stud dog has the potential to pass a genetic defect on to hundreds of offspring. All show dogs should be required to be health tested to prove their worthiness.
