Breeding Standards

Genetic Testing & Health Screening

All of our breeding dogs undergo comprehensive genetic testing before being included in our program. We screen for:

  • Hip Dysplasia via OFA or PennHIP evaluation
  • Elbow Dysplasia via OFA evaluation
  • Hereditary Eye Disorders via CERF exam
  • MDR1 (Multi-Drug Resistance) gene mutation
  • HSF4 (Hereditary Cataracts) gene mutation
  • CEA (Collie Eye Anomaly)

We only pair dogs that are genetically compatible to minimize the risk of health issues. Copies of all test results are available to prospective buyers upon request.
