And no - I would not rebreed a bitch that had produced multiple puppies with DQ faults OR multiple ED. Neither is acceptable.
so im confuzed here naw first are you stating that both dogs with ed, a helth problam ? and DQ falts (white markings)oversized,undersized and so on are to be considerd in the same catagory ?
Also let me ask you one thing how mutch experance do you have in breeding ? because i would state as will many breeders that i no in many difrent breeds and ours that many of the top dogs in the world have prouduced dogs with some form of dq falt at one time or another in there lives These things should not be put in the same catigory ?
Im sorry but i think its nuts to be comparing cosmetic falts to helth ?

and im prity shere ed +- is not the equivalent to grade 1 its ed+ from what i was told also in germany the breed wardens monetor dogs that have ed or border line problams some dogs are not permited to be breed to others depending on the extent of the problams that the dogs have
