Clearances
All of our dogs are AKC registered and are OFA/CHIC certified. We not only do the standard 4 clearances – Hips, Heart, Eyes & Elbows, which we then have certified through OFA, we also like to do as many clearances as we can, to be certain that we have the best possibility to produce the highest quality puppies possible.
We start with Preliminary OFA Hip & Elbows at 12 months of age (and of course, when they turn 2 years old, we have their hips and elbows done again for a final certification). At the same time, we do Dentition, Shoulders, & Patellars. We also have their hearts tested from a Certified Cardiologist.
At an early age, we do DNA testing thru Paw Print Genetics, to get results for GR-1, GR-2, PRCD, Ichthyosis, and Degenerative Myelopathy, & NCL5.
On a yearly basis, we have their eyes tested from a Board Certified Opthamologist.
Please take a look around and if you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
