If relevant for the breed, it also includes running DNA tests to confirm the dog is not a genetic carrier of hereditary eye diseases, such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA).

Our special touch
My special touch I suppose is the fact that I absolutely adore my Goldies, I consider them my fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth children!! Nothing is too much trouble when it comes to looking after my dogs.
