Anyway, here's a link to a picture of a red legged (hope the breeder doesn't mind). http://yorkiepassion.com/hedy.htm
Certainly everyone is entitled to their opinion. The outcome of this breeding will not really be known until these pups are at least closer to a year of age and more as they mature AND the real story will take a good 2 or 3 generations to know where it went and whether or not this was a good idea.
Then there is population genetics where it really takes some numbers of like breedings to lead towards a conclusion if indeed, one exists.
Personally, by my own preference, I would not consider a stud service or a pup from a female that I knew had red leg in the 5 generation pedigree.
My own opinion only and not intended to be a criticsm of anyone.
