As was mentioned earlier, "healthy" goes beyond good care and all appropriate vet visits and procedures when it comes to considering breeding.My danes are healthy and well cared for. Major (as was my...

No my dog is not healthy, he's dead, at 6-years old from dilated cardio myopothy. Which by the way, runs rampant in our breed and unfortunately doesn't show its ugly face until later on in life. This...

Just curious, but what kind of rescue adopts out a dog without a spay/neuter contract if they haven't already done the surgery themselves? If the vet spent "a week doing tests you've never heard of"...
