Agreed!!!!!!!! I don't know anyone that does bile acid tests on baby puppies before they leave. I have only HEARD of a couple. I don't mine . that's why I have a contract in place. AND, I got Ceeby at nine weeks. My vet refused to bile acid him at that age because of the fasting required. ceeby was bile acid tested at nine months old before he was old enough to breed. It's not that breeders can't afford to do it, as someone said, it's because it is unnecessary at a young age and can even give a false positive.
