Q. & A. with Vicki
Why did you start breeding?
For our love of the breed, we chose to begin breeding carefully paired bloodlines to continue and enhance the line. We truly respect this breed and aim to preserve the ancestory of this newly (2024) AKC recognized breed.What makes your program special?
We chose to breed our Bracco Italiano dogs in pairs to continue the Deisanchi, Cascina Croce, and Polca Vera bloodlines. Our stud (6 y.o.) comes from direct relatives of AKC and NAVDHA champions. One of our females (3 y.o.) is imported from Italy. The other female (3 y.o.) is related to AKC champions. All are OFA certified.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are white and orange. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent health testing
Great level
Eastern Breeze reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Bracco Italianos.
Hip Dysplasia
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.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Vet Wellness Exam
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Disease Panel
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 (a blood disease).
