The title does not match the one post.

I read this post like : "My dog has epilepsy, heart disease, and HD, now I try to find siblings of my dog, because I want to know if he is the only one out of this breeding with that much "bad luck", or if there are others out there with similar problems".

In case I am right it´s good to hear that your dog became that old, you seem to take good care of him.

If the OP does a search, I think they should be able to pull up an old thread about Epilepsy, etc. in the White GSDs in the UK, which may be helpful....otherwise, some of the board's UK members might be able to point the OP in a helpful direction.

I am looking for my KC Record for that year's registrations, have it
buried here somewhere ...
I took the OP's title to mean the same as Susie interpreted it. I too
was intending to reference the Epilepsy thred and others, if so, as
this may be more evidence of what I have said all along about UK
kennels breeding to sell GSDs on colour & coat length, without ref.
to health matters or other breed points.

Sorry ,but no you read it wrong then ,im sure everyone here is perfectly aware of the lines that carry epilepsy .Ive asked for help finding the siblings and no its not bad luck my dog having all these illnesses, its down right neglect on the back street breeders ,that call themselves experienced dog breeders .Getting back to the siblings ,if the siblings have any health problems its not my concern ....thats what their owners have to manage not me.Not everything is doom and gloom ,so no your not right ,you have interpreted it all wrong , nothing changed much in the world of gsd forums then ,I have the full list of the siblings from the kennel club arrived this morning.Thanks for the interest.

So what WAS your request titled with the list of
ailments for then, wos ? If you were just trying to
get a list of the littermates quicker than the KC
would supply, why did you title your thred "Epilepsy,
Heart Disease and HD" ? Why not call it something
else, like "Siblings wanted" or "Can anyone help
with details on this litter ?"; why refer to the list of
conditions at all ? As Alamance said ^^^ 'The title
does not reflect the one post.'

BTW you are wrong if you think everybody " is aware
of the lines that carry Epilepsy." Sadly that is far from
the case, even among us (extreme minority) Brits here.
As would be borne out if you studied the previous threds
referred to.

If your dog does have all 3 conditions, it would certainly
be true that "its about the back street breeders, that call
themselves experienced ..." but have neglected to do
anything to prevent these problems in their stock. Could
not agree with you more, there, personally ! However,
where we might disagree is in whether by knowing more
about the breeding (eg conditions shared by littermates)
you could, or should, do anything useful with the information,
or whether it is just "their (the siblings owners') problem".
It is in the sharing and assistance that the bigger picture
emerges, to the extent that future buyers can be warned,
perhaps meaning fewer people then have to go through
the problems you may be experiencing now.

You have not burned your boats, we are willing to assist
and advise in any way we can, if you want to come back
and ask for tips on coping with the problems.

"..., nothing changed much in the world of gsd forums then ,..."

Thank you, OP, makes me feel much better, and reminds me to stay away from any weird threads.
