Default RE: siezures

I am very sorry to hear about health problems in anyones dog. I hope things get better with your buddies.

Have any of you contacted the breeder; I think it would be a good idea to do so. It seems to me that a good breeder would want to know about this type of problem; if it is occuring in other puppies from one particular girl , it is probably best to stop breeding that girl or that combination of boy/girl.

My wife and I just found out that a puppy we sold about a year ago has had 2 siezures. This is the only problem (knock on wood) we have had in the years we have been breeding, but we now know that we have to be on the alert for any problems from other puppies from this girl. We specify in our contract that puppy buyers contact us if their puppy has any serious health problems and, when they die, what they died from and the age. BTW, since this siezure problem has happened within our 1 year guarantee period, we have offered them another puppy from our next available litter at no cost.
