    We fell in love with the breed because it suited our lifestyle. We spent time researching as much as we could because we wanted to improve the breed

Breeder-Reported Testing

Good level

Hocking Hills Keeshonds 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 Keeshonden.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Primary Hyperparathyroidism (PHPT)

    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).

    I just wanted to take a moment to thank Caitlin for the wonderful experience I had working with her to find Nova a new home. From the start, her professionalism, care, and attention to detail made the entire process so smooth and enjoyable. She gave us regular updates on Nova, whether it be about her health and growth, or just playing with her litter mates. Nova has brought so much joy into our lives, and it's clear that she came from a loving and responsible breeder. We truly appreciate everything Caitlin did to ensure she was well-cared for and ready for her new home. Thank you again for everything!

    I could tell by my initial impression by reading Caitlan’s story she was very knowledgeable and was committed to breeding love in her Keeshonds. I’m very glad we connected and purchased our new puppy Willow (litter name Pistol) from Caitlan. Our puppy is healthy, very cute, smart, well behaved and socialized. We couldn’t ask for a better choice than Caitlan, she kept us informed on how are puppy was doing and provided us weekly photos of her progress. We would highly recommend her for your loving Keeshond.

    Caitlin was an absolute joy to connect with and I could not be anymore pleased and grateful for the love, care, and attention she shows to breeding her Keeshonds. Gus (Rascal) is such a fun, loving, and smart pup (already has a 100% success rate with either pottying outside or on a pee pad). You can tell that he had the best possible first 8 weeks of his little life. Through the whole process Caitlin shared progress pics and was very proactive with the process of bringing him home and even sent him home with a little care package. Now in his new forever home Gus is settling in nicely and making fast friends with his Klee Kai housemate Nook. I would highly recommend anyone looking to bring home a lil bear cub to contact Caitlin. You will not regret it.

    We had a great experience with Hocking Hills Keeshonds! Caitlin was very responsive and gave us many updates as we waited for our puppy to come home. We scheduled a driver to transport our pup and Caitlin was very helpful in the process and made sure everything was all set for her ride. It’s clear she really cares about the puppies and takes great care of them. We’ve had Kaia for 7 months now and we couldn't be happier with our newest family member!
