It does appear that both Kahn and his father show the same pedigree on the dabase.

There is an error on the link. Explain, not sure why?

Kahn is only 11mos old and has only been prelimb, so how it ended up that his pedigree is exactly like

his sire, not sure.

It is just a matter of adding his parents to the beginning of the pedigree that you are asking about.

The link for Khan's Pedigree is correct the only thing is incorrect is the hip ratings, as I said Khan is only 11 month old and had he's prelimbs and they come out good.

I did not put this pedigree on here.

Can I change or delete the Hip rating?

Yes he will be missed, Khan is a wonderful Spirited boy easy to work with in any way this boy has excellent temperament and structure.

The breed standard that we are supposed to breed to does not allow for cow hocks and so however little it may appear, it is too much.   Unfortunately, very little attention is paid to this detail.   Newcomers to the breed see dogs with cow hocks making good places and immediately accept the situation as being corrrect and, in time, thay put two dogs together and produce the fault and they are from then on known as breeders.

Looks like my puppies rear. Any cowhock is too much IMO. My question is not about show worthiness but how does this effect our dogs in the long run and quality of life. My guy is 5 mo. old and I am worried. He is also out of showlines and this seems to be increasingly prevelent. Maybe we should all put function before angulation????
