Heath Testing
Breed Club Required Health Testing
- If a dog is not OFA health tested, assume a dog has an inheritable disease. It is that common among dogs. The only way to know if a dog is free from inheritable diseases is by testing for them. "Vet Checked" is not health testing. Preservation Breeders like us are doing our best to preserve, not only the look of this ancient breed, but also their health. The ONLY way to do that is to make sure we're only breeding OFA CHIC certified dogs. Recommended Health Tests from the Xolo Club of America :
- Patella Evaluation (toys & minis)
- Hip Radiographs
- Cardiac Exam
- Ophthalmologist Evaluation
