What testing do you do or require before breeding?
Culture on each female prior to every breeding. Even though I use my own studs and females for breeding and my studs aren't for public use, you never know what type of infection can be lurking.

Ears, eyes & heart examined. Hips, knees x-rayed. However, a complete OFA is preferred. BAT.
