| 1 in 8 births premature in US, thus our infant mortality rate. Isn't that rate of PREMIES an indicator of something wrong? |

About
In nature, the Great Pyrenees is confident, gentle, and affectionate. While territorial and protective of flock or family when necessary, the general demeanor is one of quiet composure, both patient and tolerant. The Great Pyrenees is strong willed, independent and somewhat reserved, yet attentive, fearless and loyal to flock and family.

Seems to me that a premature birth rate of 13 percent is pretty high. To compare, Ireland has a premie rate of SIX percent.
Oh, and we are only fourth in survival of these premies. Sweden, Denmark, and Austria all have higher very pre-term survival rates.
Birth defects are increasing in many countries and for many reasons.
