As a breeder what should I know about Addisons disease when selecting a stud dog?
Ask your breeder about the incidence of Addison’s disease in your own bitch’s line first. Get the information, it’s out there somewhere. Ask the stud owner for the history of Addison’s in their line. If you don’t think you’re getting the truth, find another dog and when asked, tell your reasons for not using him. This is serious business. Every known Addisonian should be reported to the Addison’s Committee and the Health Registry. The Addison’s committee has been answering questions since 1983 we will always be available to try to answer yours.
