I'm in talks with the folks at Knockout for a puppy and wanted to hear the forum's thoughts. If you know them or have one of their progeny, please speak your mind!
I had a long talk with the breeder, a pathologist MD by trade. He was quite well spoken on the well-known problems Dobes have with poor DNA diversity as well as their associated health concerns. We had a good talk on the various tests available as well as their limitations.
But before I commit, I am hoping to travel to meet their Dobes & sniff a few butts in person. As always, I appreciate the collective love of the forum!
