Try to breed as less Affected dogs as possible should be interpretated as: Use all the dogs you have (even the affected, ofcourse not the ones that are showing symptoms of DM, that would't be fair to the dogs), don't exclude any dog, but make good combinations so that the number of Affected dogs wil drop dramaticly in the future.
When I see the numbers of affected versus Free dogs I don't know if it is possible to get rid of DM in one or 2 generations, but we can try to get the number of Affected dogs down , and hopefully in the future no more DM dogs wil be born.
