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.
