My top five are:
1. Immune system disorders (where thing slike demo come from)
2. Eye issues, such as entropin and excessive dry eye. I do not consider cherry eye a problem as it is so common and easliy repairable.
3. DCM as it sometimes does not rear its ugly head until well into maturity
4. Bloat intestinal problems, I have only ever had 1 dog bloat that I was able to save on my own.
5. dysplasia and genteic disorders. Come to think of it, I would like to move my 5th choice to number one as many of the problems and issues you see are genetic based. Immune system, eyes, heart, stomache.....hell everything!!

1 The breeders
2 Dog Shows
3 Kennels
4 Forgotten and ignoring the history of the breed
5 Non active dogs

I know that I need to elaborate.
