A complete bloodwork panel would also be a good idea.

Undesirable traits would be misaligned jaw, nose too long, not a silk coat, etc., basically how well be meets the standard. Of course, some feel that if the default isn't life threatening then it doesn't matter, but if you care about the breed then only breed dogs very close to the standard.
A brucellosis test is not needed, this dog has NEVER bred before. Save yourself a few pennies! The blood panel is a must it checks the kidney and liver are functioning properly, if you get any abnormalites then do the LS test.
