Looking for a puppy/rescue dog

First off, I'm so sorry about your loss. If you feel like you're ready to get a new dog or puppy, go for it. But I have to agree that it definitely sounds fishy to say that MRIs are misleading. I spent a lot of time interviewing breeders before even making the decision to get a dog, and I found that the more I talked to, the more I learned. In the beginning they all sounded responsible, and presented themselves as such, but then I'd find a couple that would really educate me on health issues. It was conversations like these that helped me make the decision about which breeder to go with. I relied heavily on this board when I was looking, and reading everyone's posts helped me to ask the right questions. You may get a perfectly healthy puppy from one of the breeders you mentioned, but if you don't, I would hate to think of you stretching your wallet at the outset, and then have to pay tons of $$$ because of ongoing health problems (not to mention the horrible feelings that go with having a dog in pain). Getting a dog or puppy is tremendously exciting, and I think it's even more so when you're confident of its health.
