IMPORTANT
Considerations for Purchasing Your Puppy, Companion, and Friend:

Hip and Elbow Dysplasia are a serious genetic defect in all large breeds. Hip and Elbow
Dysplasia can cause crippling and suffering in the life of a dog.  It can also be without
symptoms.  Just because a dog moves normally does not mean it is free from dysplasia.  
If a dog is dysplastic and bred even if it has no outward symptoms, it will carry this
polygenetic trait for generations to come. The only proof that a dog is not dysplastic is
for an adult to have
hip and elbow certification  This is evidenced by the OFA, PENN HIP
and other official certifying organizations in other coutries such as the West German "A"
Stamp that is afixed to the pedigree.
Without hip and elbow certification breeding should
not be a consideration no matter how great the beauty, pedigree, etc.

This has been the standard of ethical breeders for decades.  

Unfortunately too many breeders for purposes of the almighty dollar ignore
something so simple and basic as hip and elbow certification.  If breeders had
an ounce of ethics over these years we would not be starring suffering in the
face now.  Breeders who ignore such principles cause needless suffering in
our companions and friends and their human families.

(1)  NEVER purchase a puppy out of parentage without hip and elbow certification.
ELBOW CERTIFICATION IS  EQUALLY AS IMPORTANT AS HIP CERTIFICATION.  
The pain and suffering from genetic abnormal elbows can be horrendous.
  
Check out that certification to ascertain that it is genuine.  You can check out the OFA
ascertain that it is genuine. You can check out the OFA at http://www.offa.org  The
Orthopedic Foundation for Animals  Yes people do lie about hip and elbow certification.
Amazing.  Also another warning: One common unethical breeder comment is, “Oh, they
had preliminary x-rays at such and such an age.”  Then why is the dog not hip and
elbow certified now? If the dog is old enough for his/her OFA or A stamp then he/she is
old enough for certification. Just count that dog as dysplastic.There are another 100
reasons the unethical breeder will give you as a reason the parents are not OFA or A
Stamp certified normal.*
 Don't listen. Run in the other direction as fast as you can
to an ethical breeder.
There are plenty of ethical breeders. You do not have to be
mislead and hurt by the unethical breeder or broker.  (4) Do not purchase an older
puppy or young adult without elbow & hip preliminary x-rays with microchip and/or tatoo
number on x-rays. The x-rays should be read by a radiologist.
Do NOT!  Do NOT take
the puppy or young dog into your home prior to preliminary x-rays. You can fall in love
with a pup with normal hips and elbows as easily as one that will bring you heartache for
the rest of your life.  Don't fall into that trap.
 (4) Do not purchase an adult dog without
hip & elbow certification:ie OFA or "A" Stamp (There are hip & elbow certifications for
other countries also*).

If you purchase a puppy out of uncertified parentage then you are contributing
to suffering as much as the unethical breeder.
When the purchaser starts
demanding simple ethics of hip and elbow certification from breeders and brokers (those
who buy low and sell high) they will stop breeding and selling puppies and dogs that will
live in pain and cause their families untold grief.

Do your homework carefully and do not compromise hips, elbows, health, or
temperament.  Our hope is that you will find the perfect pup for YOU and your
family.
