When the gene test became available I had four of my six tested just as a matter of interest & they all came back negative,wouldn't have made any difference whatever though,they all came from good breeders & good breeding lines & I have always accepted when I bought a MC that being a large breed it could tie in with the same as larger dogs more health problems & a shorter life span,I am prepared for either I know I could not be without a MC in my life.
Having said that of all the MC's that come into work & a lot of them from not so good breeders I haven't known any of them to have heart problems,stunted growth upset stomachs yes but hearts ticking away like a good un,even friends who have lost their MC's at a youger age have not had heart problems. Everything living is on borrowed time from the day it is born,that is a fact of life so be positive,as Debbie has pointed out look for a good breeder fall in luv,buy & enjoy every minute you have with them
it will be worth it....x
