My Lucy is a poster child for why breeders should do genetic testing. She has MVD and luxating patellas in both knees that will eventually require surgery.
I bought her from a very nice breeder that breeds small litters in her home. No puppymill; she has to have a vet recommendation before you ever visit the pups. Adorable all of them and much loved by her.
But, evidently, she does NOT do genetic testing; and I think this is an important step. |
