Genetic TestThis is a disease affecting the spinal cord of older dogs, initially causing wobbliness and eventually hindlimb paralysis. It can affect a wide range of breeds. There is now a DNA test that can indicated if a breeding dog is carrying this disease.

About the Breeder
A little about us
I have been showing and breeding Labradors for 25yrs and have now fallen in love with the gorgeous temperament and slower pace of the Chow Chows. I am new to Chows regardless of this I am aware and ensure all tests are done to ensure healthy well balanced pups are born.
Why we got involved in breeding
I have a love and passion for dogs. I fell in love with the Chows after baby sitting a chow a few years ago and decided it was time for a breed change, a dog that is laid back clean east to live with and protective. I am also able to walk around the show ring rather than run which suits me better as I get older.
Our special touch
I can not imagine my life with out dogs and to associate with like minded people.
