I think it is more difficult to breed a sound dog with the same movement we 
all want here in North America, but I see no reason it cannot be done.  The 
size designation, aside from the basic fact that the breed historically is 
not a "giant" breed, is encouraging the too big and heavy dog that will get 
the breed in some difficulty in all these areas previously mentioned.
