Merry's breeding was a dream of mine since we got Angus, because of the inbreeding of the Polish/Finnish and French lines we love and hold in high regard.

I was fortunate enough to go up and see her a few times - and do her testing before bringing her home. She is a strong meek dog, with lots of opinions, and she steals hearts wherever she goes!

All of our breeding dogs are health tested and temperament tested.
All of our puppies are tested at 49 days using the Volhard Temperament Test and at 56 days with the Hastings Personality and Structure Method.
We offer breeder support for the lifetime of your Barbet.
We CAER (formally CERF - eyes) as well as Xray HIPS and ELBOWS, which had been previously certified through the OVC (Guelph Veterinary University - Canada) and now the OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals - USA).
We have also started screening for PRA-PRCD although it is NOT a lab verified test, is thought that it is our specific breeds testing for this disease. More time and testing to verify it however, for now it does seem prudent to use this as a testing marker. Occasionally, we will test for PRA-CORD-1 as well based on the lineage. A variety of other tests may also be done when and where necessary and at our discretion, thyroid, cardiac, etc. All of the above results are published on the internet and are there for the viewing.
If you don't see a test listed or a link listed and you are interested, please ask. We would be happy to share the official documented results (certificates, registrations) with you.
