vWD is uncommon in New Zealand thank goodness. It is not promising for an affected dog to have a long life. A genetical carrier of vWD is just that - not affected but a carrier only and can only be used for breeding when matched with a cleared female/male dog.
I hope this makes the position of the breeder you are discussing, clearer.
