Most of Jos Neapolitans are genetically defective.

It is hard to get a breed from there that wont have one or more of the below health issues.

* Retained Testicles, (can be fatal eventually.)
* Cherry eyes ( observed in 90% of them)
* Hips and Elbow Dysplasia (very common)
* Cataract
* Wound that never heals in their forehead.

These are noticeable genetic disorders observed in almost all the neapolitan in Jos.
This is mostly as a result of inbreeding among the defected breeds which have then resulted to descendants with certainty of having some of the above health disorder.

Below is carefully bred pedigree from healthy lineage.
No cherry eyes, no health issues in all the puppies to adulthood. One of the female is currently 2 werks pregnant.

Thanks for your detailed explanation. I used to think cherry eyes is an abnormality in Neapos which one has no control over whether it occurs or not.

No no, they are genetic defects but can be operated successfully though - That will not mean that the offsprings won't have cherry eyes afterwards.
