Our boy was out of leonitis from se oklahoma. At 6 months cancer started on his foot. 2 surgeries, reported to breeders and sent medical records. Then ligaments snapped in one knee, surgery 3500. One year later other knee surgery, best Dr in state of wa., 3200. Reports and medical records sent to breeder who always said he didn't get the emails and mailed reports. Then found out in Jan 2017 out 6 year old baby was bleeding to death from tumors in his abdomen bursting. We were told by this breeders little girl and later from breeder that lion it is died from cancer. That's right, big winner in 2011 passed on those cancer genes to his son, our pup Rocky, and we watched him die so weak he could not walk. Breeder never acknowledged one medical record and did not replace pup. Training and vet bills we invested 15,000 in our family member . He knew his famous Leonitis died from cancer and our pup must have gotten those rotten genes. Wonder how many pups he passed those genes to? Wasn't fair to Rocky or us. Can't believe he had to die like that and breeder didn't step. I think Leonitis is out of Phantom. Worse thing we ever experienced.
