*AKC DNA Profile (to document parentage)


*DNA test for von Willebrand’s Disease TYPE 1 (VetGen or GenSol )


*Hip Dysplasia (OFA or PennHIP evaluation)


*Elbow Dysplasia (OFA)


*Eye examination by a board certified ACVO ophthalmologist (results registered with OFA)


*Congenital cardiac exam (auscultation, OFA evaluation with cardiologist exam)


*Many breeders also test for other health issues such as degenerative myelopathy (DNA test by GenSol)
