So I took her in to get her looked at, they then had done some tests on her pretty much everything from parvo to heartworms just to be on the safe side. Paid a pretty penny for the bill, but she's worth it.
I just don't know what to do. I was suppose to breed them today, but what good would it do if I can't register the puppies.
Good answer - why breed them!

And what you had was just a basic physical. You need to also do a Bile Acid test, full blood panel (I do - to check all blood chem, levels), check petellas (knees), not to mention Burcellious (sp) test to check for STDs. Same for the male. I do not breed unless I have had these tests done. Just the blood panel alone runs me about 85.00. When breeding - you want them thoroughly checked out, just not a regular physical. Yes, a regular physical is expensive alone, but you must go further.
