Honestly, when I see a lot of excuses from a breeder blaming everything under the sun for health problems... like, rants about how things that other people use every single day without incident (like flea/tick medications, vaccines) will permanently harm your dogs, or how VMA guidelines allow vets to do... whatever it is she thinks they can now do to kill dogs, or how vets diagnosing problems is bad... and they can no longer offer health guarantees because of new VMA guidelines (?!)... it makes me wonder what vets were finding and what kind of genetic problems are in their lines. Yes, sometimes stuff happens, but ALWAYS someone else's fault? Nuh-uh. I wouldn't WANT a dog from these people even if they weren't nutso.
