We have
made some ethical guidelines in order to breed healthty and beautiful Wheatens
with good temperaments. These guidelines apply both to our own bitches and
the studs. |
 |
 |
We
are only breeding with dogs which are free of HD |
 |
Only dogs free of PRA and other eye diseases are used for breeding |
 |
We
do not use dogs with proven carriers* of the inherited kidney diseases Progressive
Nephropaty and Protein Loosing Disease in their pedigree no matter how many
generations back the carrier is found. |
 |
Our
bitches must be at least 24 months old before they get their first litter
and they must not be older than 7 years before they get their last litter. |
 |
Our bitches must not get more than 3 litters, and there must at least be
one season between the litters. |
 |
Our
own dogs must be mental tested before breeding. |
 |
None of our puppies are allowed for breeding without our permission and
they must have their hips x-rayed and the eyes checked without any remarks.
We do recommend a mental test too. |
