I do think inbreeding is a problem. I had a Rhodesian Ridgeback. He was a 10 stone bundle of muscle but thought he was a lap dog but you wouldn't have stood a chance if he had turned due to his sheer size and strength. The ridge that characterises them is actually a form of spina bifida and they are notoriously hard to train due to breeding. Beautiful dogs but lethal in the wrong hands....
