You right. But not only owners are victims of the insincere breeder. Imagine this: a breeder is looking for a male for his bitch. He find a nice HD-free male. What he doesn't knows almost all puppies of this dog have HD. Because it is not allowed to publish the HD-results of the ill dogs he has no idea about is. But he means well. He use this dog and the result are a lot of ill puppies.

sorry
when I wrote this I didn't realise this option, while I as a breeder ad the same experience with a male (of an other breed) with heart disease. But till now I was lucky; none of the pups became ill (but of course we don't know how it is in future with their puppy's
)

It's the reason it's exceptionally important to colect the information about all diseases and death causes. We will need it - maybe not in the near future but in next 4-5(?) generations...

I completely agree with you!!
But I also know a lot of silly people who don't want to inform us or other ones
And when people are going on and on with the same breeding lines with genetic health problems, we all don't notice the problems on this moment. But in future this can ruin a breed, and then we all know what was going on!!
I only can aks, just like Margo did, please inform eachother about these things! Only when we all are honoust and work together we can keep healthy breeds !
