Hi every one, there has been some great info gained from this post, i found bigskys first response a very good one, I am very new and want the best for the breed, on emailing JDJ's kennels asking about hip and elbow scores there response was that they don't do it!, so getting pups from them to me is far to risky, My question is, I see lots of breeders going the right way with hip scoring but how many actaully xray there elbows? as this is also a serious problem within the breed also, I know there is no perfect dog but there are some shitters that shouldn't be breed, just my observation mainly with the dogs in Australia,

: First off let me say I am not trying to start a bash someone thread. In that being
: said I have only been in the breed about 5 yrs and only breeding about 1/2 that
: time. I for my own personally knowledge would like to know everyone's view on JDJ
: breeding practices. This and that has been said and I would really like to know the
: truth. I haven't been around long enough to know it but I have been around in this
: world long enough to know when something should have proof. I am really trying to
: learn about the breed and before I make my mind up I would like to know all the
: facts. I came to this board for the answer because I think my best chances of
: getting are here. Thanks in advance.
