Explanation:
Hola,

En el texto incluido aquí explica que para que haya un inventario balanceado debe haber la menor cantidad de "poor dog", es decir de productos que no se deben comprar.

Una manera de traducirlo sería "huesos"

Me parece que es una palabra que usan en Alemania, por la cantidad de enlaces encontrados.

Saludos

Es ist eine ganz entscheidende Frage herauszufinden, an welcher Stelle sich welche Produkte einer Bibliothek befinden, welche Produkte nachwachsen können und welche bereits als „poor dog“ abgeschrieben und künftig nicht mehr angeboten werden müssen. Eine Möglichkeit zur Eruierung der jeweiligen Position innerhalb des Lifecycles eines Produktes ist die Portfolio-Analyse bzw. die Analyse auf der Basis der Portfolio-Methode.
