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.

Kelly was very responsive and helpful. He kept me updated on her progress until she was ready to be picked up. He went out of his way to meet me at the airport. He was very kind and you can tell the puppies were raised with love because she is very loving and such a joy in our lives.

Kelly was very informative about this breed. He showed me the proper way to tape the ears. He met me at the airport and was flexible with the time (my flight was very late) He went out of his way to show me how to register her with AKC. I am very happy with my new puppy! She is so smart and makes life more joyful! I can tell the puppies were born and raised in a very loving home. I recommend these wonderful cresteds to everyone !
