Looks like it's going to be a very busy summer. After years with no pups, or just one small litter, we are doubling our options this year. Penny came in season earlier than anticipated, but we're going to go ahead and breed her too. Reebok's pups will be raised at my house, Penny's pups at Jess's. This will be Jess's first litter, although she's helped with many over the years. Penny's health testing (ears, eyes, thyroid, cardiac) is all completed except for hips and elbows which have been rescheduled for today. A dog must be two years old for OFA to rate their hips, and Penny just turned two. She's being bred to an older dog, so he is scheduled for a sperm count later this week, just to be sure he's up to the job. Hopefully both processes will have good results!
When OFA evaluates and processes Penny's hips she will be assigned her CHIC number. I love the little bumper stickers that OFA sends out with the certificates.
