All dogs in our breeding program have been health checked (through Embark) for all known Doberman genetic concerns
Hips – Hip Dysplasia (Definitive)
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Eyes – Eye Certification (OFA CAER)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impaired vision or blindness.
Thyroid – Thyroid (Autoimmune Thyroiditis)
Thyroid testing reduces the chance of passing down hypothyroidism, which can cause a variety of symptoms including obesity, hair loss, skin problems, and mild to severe pain.
Other – Dentition
We perform additional tests on our dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to this particular breed.
Genetics – Genetic Diversity Test, GenSol Diagnostics DNA Testing, Full Embark Panel, Dilated Cardiomyopathy 1 (DCM1)

Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand’s Disease.
