Alice is on 50 mg of Atopica daily, omega 3&6 capsules, Humilac spray daily, and Paula Martel will be doing Alice’s very complicated bath weekly. This is costing my family thousands of dollars. As her Breeder, Would you be willing to refund us our money what we paid  for Alice, due to the SA Disease?

…..I do not guarantee life-long health, as some breeders may do. Instead, my breeding program focuses on trying to deter faults - both genetic and physical.  By scrutinizing pedigrees and doing health tests on our breeding dogs, it helps me to make sound decisions on who I will breed.  Mother Nature takes care of the rest. When dealing with genetics, there is never guarantees.
