Hey Lawlandmen,
You are correct in saying with answer choice A, that there could still be medical bills that are costly even if most of the issues do not affect a dogs health, but the correct answer choice in a weaken question does not have to completely wreck the argument, without doubt, it just has to weaken the argument more than the other answer choices.
Saying that "most genetically determined abnormalities in dogs do not seriously affect a dog's general well-being" certainly weakens the argument that we should avoid purebreds if we want to reduce our medical bills. It is not a perfect answer, because of the issue you correctly pointed out, but it is the best answer here.
I hope this helps.
Best,
Ryan
