Q. & A. with Nancy
Why did you start breeding?
I have always been in a peer group of magnificent breeders during my showing career. I have always wanted to correct certain flaws that I have perceived to be fixable in my champions.What makes your program special?
my bloodlines are impeccable and my research as to studs goes back 8 generations. I stay away from taking chances with unknown dogs and those untested. I talk to other breeders about my initial choices for opinions. My stud dogs have been used frequently producing many champions along with my dams. I have many offspring that also have working, therapy titles in addition to their championshipsWhere do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Great level
Paragon Newfoundlands 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 Newfoundlands.
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.
Brucellosis
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 Coat/Trait 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).
