Our standards & practices

Health testing & screening

Question. Do you health test appropriately (eg hip and elbow X-ray scoring, DNA testing), and understand the genetic issues that may affect your breed? If your breed is prone to health issues, what are they, and what testing practices do you have in place?
Answer. Yes.We extensively health check our dogs, with clear heart and eye certificates from leading vet specialists in Victoria, along with excellent hip and elbow scores. We also complete genetic screenings to ensure all our pups are free of conditions such as Ichthyosis.

Preparation & socialisation

Question. Do you ensure that your puppies are properly socialised?
