Looking at a breeder for a golden retriever who performs OFA and PennHipp hip and elbows testing, but did not perform testing for heart and eyes. Is this a red flag or seem okay?

I think you’ve underestimated the veracity of pound rescuers and anti-breeders. Prepare for your alerts to skyrocket 🤦‍♂️

Yeah I figured this would happen, but I didn't ask for advice on making the choice to adopt or breed. Adopting certianly helps the problem, but negligent owners are the reason shelters are full. Plus it's hard to find a good field bred golden retriever puppy to train as a hunting dog. So please answer my question (as I'm looking to responsibly shop and not adopt) or don't answer it at all.

Sorry I’ve never heard of PennHipp testing so no advice on it, just saying in my limited experience of buying a Doodle from a breeder, we were faced with tons and tons of criticism. My only point was beware of what you ask for on here, people aren’t scared to voice their opinions. That’s all. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Yeah I hear you, I was really referring to EY2, but I get it's a touchy subject.

The breeder did say that at the time it was not a concern when they first started breeding but would test it on future dogs but that would not be for another few years. It looks like 1 of the 2 dogs breeding do have testing for heart, eyes, elbows, and hips but the other only has testing on elbows and hips

Hi all! I recently finished my Masters in Biology. I worked on a few studies with human subjects as well as animal work. I am hoping to get a job in clinical research as either a CRC or CRA.

Hey all. I have a 5 month old cavapoo. She keeps scratching her ear. I am not convinced its an infection cause when she did have one, it was red and she would yelp if I touched her ear. I cleaned her ear, however, and black stuff came out. What is that?

I know this bowl seems to be all photos 😍 but serious question for all you hard-working, king-hours dog owners out there... do you ever feel guilty about how much you're working and leaving your pup at home alone? How do you get over that guilt? Do you use doggie daycare every day or just a few times a week? Do rely on a roommate or SO to help? I'm a single lady and would LOVE to get a pup this year but am fighting the guilty feelings, so any advice would be much appreciated!
