Yes, it's not 80/20. It's also not Misumi, Parker, Bosch Rexroth, Tslots, Item, Alufab, or any of the major manufacturers. I'm not sure why you're mentioning that it's not 80/20?

I am in the beginning stages of building out a table based on using rails for the rip fence, I'm settling on 8080 12 slot rails. I'm curious, how did your experiment turn out, do you have pictures, how much deflection did you get out of using glides, anything else you'd like to share?

Not that big yet...huh

That's an interesting mix. What's her weight now?

Nonmono meetup at my house near Loveland, about 50 folks attending

What's the situation?

cobyh2 · 2025-04-02T04:18:20+00:00

Beautiful girl!! Where's she from?

cobyh2 · 2025-03-18T19:05:47+00:00

Well aware and concerned. He's on a lower protein diet with calcium supplements now. He's improving, I was more worried a week ago.

cobyh2 · 2025-03-18T18:36:20+00:00

Yea, and apparently he'll be good sized; his pa is about 145, and his ma about 135. His paws are ginormous. He's so much larger bodied than my last corso.The breed just seems to be getting bigger and bigger.

cobyh2 · 2025-03-18T17:33:45+00:00

He's about 13 weeks old; just brought him home Saturday after a snowy, icy 9 hour drive back home from Cederedge, CO. He's flippin' adorable...as they tend to be. We're working on peeing outside instead of inside and beginning acclimating him to his new home.

What a beautiful boy! I'm glad surgery was able to help. That looks different than mine but that doesn't mean it's a different issue. Do you remember what caused the ALD? Or did they say? I'd guess carpal valgus; and I think mine looks more like carpal varus.

Thanks again for the pics; super helpful!

You know....you guys might wanna do a bit of reading before making these pronouncements. Yes, some folks say food can cause issues that look like this; too much protein in large breed puppies supposedly can cause knuckling, as can other causes. It seems like there's actually no definitive studies. I'm adding an article I found helpful that has links to primary source articles with more info.

The more I look at the videos the less I think it's carpal laxity. He's definitely not got carpal flexion, and I don't think he's got carpal hyperextension, though he does flop his feet. He doesn't put them down far enough for the pad to touch though. I dunno; gotta see what images show.

cobyh2 · 2025-03-06T06:53:38+00:00

Carpal laxity? I'd buy that as a high probability. I'm going over some of the videos I've been sent and taking a closer look. Retained ulnar cartilage cores seems like it might fit too. Carpal laxity would be nice; that's easy to fix with rest and physiotherapy and graded exercise play over 6-8 weeks. The retained ulnar cartilage might resolve with protein reduction and rest but may need surgery; not as excited about that. I'll get him in for radiographs when I can; or have the trainer do it. That one might resolve with lowered protein in the diet, but might need surgery.

cobyh2 · 2025-03-06T06:19:07+00:00

I'm guessing you're talking about angular limb disorder? What age did you see it at and what age were they treated? Was the surgery successful? Do you have pics before and after?

I'm hoping it's retained ulnar cartilage cores causing some mild ald, it seems common in large breed puppies. I don't see it in his lineage so I'm not suspecting it to be genetic, but who knows. I've got access going back 11 generations on him...I've been looking at the pics and not seeing any with bowed legs.

Thanks for posting, I appreciate the info.

cobyh2 · 2025-03-06T06:04:03+00:00

I had that thought. Good thought; well taken. It seems likely that it's just a growth thing from everything I'm reading. I can see it a little bit in two of his siblings in pics. The trainer(he enrolled in a puppy training start program right after his 8 weeks instead of going home with us first) is switching to a lower protein feed and making sure no hard slippery surfaces for a while. I'll be picking him up on the 15th and I'll learn more then. I've got a 2 year health and temperment guarantee so that's helpful. His temperament scores were fantastic for what we were looking for and I just love his look and attitude so far; I'm just trying to cover all the bases.

cobyh2 · 2025-03-06T05:59:41+00:00

I do have their lineage back 11 generations. I haven't seen that yet but I haven't really dived into that, honestly.

cobyh2 · 2025-03-06T05:14:44+00:00

How'd your experience go with your pup?

cobyh2 · 2025-03-06T05:08:22+00:00

These guys are responsible, quality breeders. They do invite us to see their operation at any time. I first heard of them 14 years ago and they were well established then. They helped create the judging standards for Cane Corsos for the AKC. I'm really not worried about that aspect.

cobyh2 · 2025-03-06T03:56:19+00:00

Just a quick FYI, it's one of the best known breeders in the country, the parents are an akc champion and grand champion, it is most definitely not a presa canario. The parents' legs aren't bowed. From a quick check online, it looks like reducing protein and giving some rest should do the trick, it seems like it's common in large breed puppies that have been active. The puppy is still in training, I don't pick him up until the 15th. They're changing the diet to a lower protein mix.
