 Bull with Pacemaker
I came across a story last week about a Prized Bull that either has/or is about to be implanted. I was curious though, if he has a heart condition requiring implantation, is that something that would be passed down to the offspring? Wouldn't that be undesirable in a breeder? I will try and track it down again and post a link here.

 Re: Bull with Pacemaker
Hey Jim,
I guess you didnt find the link yet, but it is really interesting non the less. I suppose if a Prized Bull had a heart anomaly that a Pacemaker would correct, that this would be a desirable option to keep him alive and breeding, but is the heart condition hereditary? Could this condition be passed down to the offspring hence making the bloodline undesirable to maintain?

Hey Greg,
Dag Nabit, I can't find it!
I went back through my history but it's not there. I'll keep an ear to the ground and if I here anything on it I will ping you.
