I really don't understand you...

1) There is nothing wrong and nothing new about using HD-C dogs. Expecially when the result comes from a very strict vet. And the HD-C dog is mated with veary healthy female.
If you like it or not the population of CzW is not big enoguh and in many cases we are using HD-C dogs to protect the gene pool. Of course it will be better to mate only HD-A dogs but in some cases we have to use also dogs with worser results.
Of couse the decision depends on the breeder. I personaly would use a HD-C dog comming from a very heathy line but I already decided several times NOT TO USE a HD-A dog (with HD-Aparents) comming from a line responsible for spread out hip displasia. So please see every case separatly because there are no easy answers.

2) It wonders me why exactly you are writing that OTHER breeders do not pay enough attention to the health. Sorry, but so far we have your litters:

- one litter: 3 generation with only 7 dogs checked of 14 ancestors. Results: 3 x HD-A, 1 x HD-B, 1 x HD-D, 1 x HD-E.
Inbreed done on Gar, Rep and Eta Pohostinstvo CS (HD-D)

- second litter: 3 generation with only 6 dogs checked of 14 ancestors.

- your new so advertised "wolfish arrival" : of 14 ancestors only 4 with clear hips (HD-A) and the dog is an inbreed on 5 dogs where 2 are not checked (in this case it is explicable because they are old dogs) but NONE of the others is HD-free!



Paula explained why she is doing her litter (PURE FACTS).
Are you ABLE to do the same and explain us your way of breeding. Because for 100% it is not a way of breeding which can be advertised to other breeders as one where the breeding of healthy dogs is the main goal...
