An article by Cathy Marley, M.D. and dog breeder

http://www.netpets.com/dogs/reference/genetics/diversity.html

"A reasonable course of action in any genetic disease demands that attention be paid both to removing the gene where possible without seriously degrading the genetic viability of the population, and taking steps to provide increased genetic diversity if it is needed."
