How is not testing parents great??? I AKC also recommends testing sires and dams prior to breeding for OFA (hips, knees) and CERF and suggests BAT also. So for the breeder listed (Daisy Hill) being YTCA member and an AKC breeder and exhibitor...would it not stand to reason that they test their breeding stock?

4) All stud dogs and bitches shall be screened prior to breeding for both infectious and
hereditary diseases using the then generally accepted and available techniques. "
So could someone please explain how this person maintains YTCA membership?
