Your Puppy’s Health Check!

Puppies And Testing

When people come to us for a puppy, they often come with stories about their last dog. Too often it’s a tragedy. Sometimes, they had to put the dog down because of early and crippling arthritis. Others have paid thousands of dollars for joint replacements— only for the dog to never recover full function or a pain-free life. One family recently had to say goodbye to their new puppy before the age of two, due to an undiagnosed heart defect.

Our mission is to keep that tragedy from happening to your family.

This is the introduction of a series of five posts on different aspects of your dog’s long-term health. While we obviously can’t guarantee that your puppy will always be disease-free, this blog series will detail what we do as breeders to keep you and your newest family member happy and healthy for as many years as possible.

Your part?

Your part is to ask the questions. If you don’t know the answer it is likely that many others don’t as well. Please ask us. We will do our very best to answer.
