WI lab breeder recommendations

People not really into dogs have no clue but I hold the srs dogs in very high regard . Ron Anderson and rip had a good run at the NARC

Was just listening to a podcast today with Ron talking about Rip. My pup is closely related to Rip on his Studs side.

You have a foxx pup? Chopper has always caught my eye he is a good looking dog.

One thing that really concerns me about some of these higher end breedings (FC, SRS, GRHRCH, MNH, ect) is the prevalence of ligament injuries and early-onset cancers.

Seems like you can't talk about some of these great dogs without hearing something in that realm. Idk if its related to training or their octane level or if it's truly something in the genetics of these top performers. But it makes me hesitant. And I say this as a guy who would like to have a competitive dog in the future.

You also can't rule out the environment. a lot of these dogs are training frequently in treated field/ponds. Plus they've conclusively linked slippery indoor floors to ligament injury rates, and you'll never see that in pedigrees. Even in humans they've recently started to see that what we thought were genetic issues running in families were actually shared environmental exposures.

Who are those dogs?

Is it really that bad or is it there are so few of them it sounds bad.
