It seems like you are getting some information, what I would like you to consider, if the prebreeding tests have not been done on your breeding pair, that you do what you can to remedy the situation after whelping and before your puppies go home.

Here are some of the tests: the pair is tested for PRA which must be done by an opthamologist and then you will receive a CERF number.

LP if present should be assessed and graded by an othopaedic surgeon

Xrays OFA;d for hips and elbows.

BATS done for LS

Some ppl do heart, thryoid and a hyperurocosuria genetic test.

I'm sure prior to breeding that you found out about the health history of the lines, and thus have a good understanding of the incidence of any of the above conditions.

I wish you a safe whelp
