No, unfortunately not. You wouldn’t have any reason to remember my introduction, but Jax came from a backyard breeder. The only reason she still had him at 12 weeks was that Jax is vision impaired and she was unable to sell him. He was ... not in very good physical condition when I got him, besides being vision impaired. It was a lot of work and expense to get him into his present condition, and he will always have the vision impairment. And the breeder is still breeding a pair of dogs whose offspring, statistically, have a one in four chance of having the same congenital eye defect and a two in four chance of being carriers.
