We feel that health is very important when breeding.  Along with getting titles to show the breed type, intelligence and temperament, passing the health testing is paramount.  All of the dogs are EMBARK tested when they are puppies.  This test covers 274 diseases.  Once the dogs reach 2 years old they can be OFA tested for Hips, Elbows, Patellas and Thyroid.  Eyes can be done and registered with OFA after a year and every year after.  This is very expensive so we try to hit health clinics when available.
