Tough Decisions
This past week, I had the most joyous occasion you can imagine! I temperament tested a purpose bred litter of puppies in Pocatello so the puppies could be placed in homes appropriate for their personalities. The parents were both health tested and passed with OFA Good hips and Normal elbows. They were also tested for Degenerative Myelopathy which is a devastating spinal disease that can cripple a dog in their older years. Neither parent carried the gene. The dogs had working titles to prove breed worthiness, and ability to learn and work with superior personality. Both parents had an extensive, proven healthy, long line of ancestry behind them.
