Whether you are a breeder or a family just looking for a healthy family pet, its important to learn your breeds standard. Proper structure is just as important as health, a well balanced animal has a much better chance of staying physically sound. When looking for a quality breeder its important even for a pet family to be able to spot a correct dog. Unfortunately there are so many poor quality breeders out there, the only way to stop them is to educate the public on how to spot a reputable breeder. I hope the links and charts located here can help.
