Help in Choosing a New Puppy- The Pedigree
Posted by Susan Smith

How about grandparents and great grandparents? Have they been genetically tested for diseases that can be passed on to your puppy? Have their hips been tested for hip dysplasia? All this can be seen in the pedigree. Take a look as Dr. Carmen Battaglia discusses the ‘Ins and Outs’ of a dog’s pedigree.
