"Suja" said in rec.pets.dogs.breeds:

There are unfortunately many unscrupulous breeders out
there, advertising so-called Giant Mals that fall
significantly outside the desirable size ranges.

Include in that the wonderful 120 pound female, easily 26", who
comes to my house. Not quite 3 years old, she's being treated
for arthritis.
