About Dolly
Dolly is bred by Moon gate Cavaliers out of Las Cruces, New Mexico. She has been OFA health tested. She is not just breeding dog and she lives in the home with our family. She is a great therapy animal. She is a typical cavalier, showing no aggression towards any other animals, unless they mess with her puppies :-) she is 17 pounds on her last vet check.
Good health testing
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA).
Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Great level
High Plains Cavaliers 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 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels.
Elbow Dysplasia (rDVM, not registered)
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.
Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)
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 impared vision or blindness.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Patellar Luxation
Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
