DNA GENETIC HEALTH TESTING

***All of our Breeding dogs have been cleared via DNA Genetic testing or by Parentage DNA Genetic testing.***

What does hybrid vigor mean?

Hybrid vigor, also known as heterosis or outbreeding enhancement, is the phenomenon that a hybrid offspring has improved traits, such as growth rate, biomass, stress tolerance, and fertility. Hybrid dogs are healthier and have better longevity than purebreds. Why is this? Because each Purebred dog carries a series of traits, good and bad, the more the Purebreds are crossed together those traits gets stronger. Generally each Purebred dog carries their own “faults” so Poodles carry different faults than Aussies and each parent needs to carry a copy of that genetic trait to pass it on to the puppies, so only one parent carries that trait and the other does not, that trait will not be passed on. So by crossing the two different Purebreds, you will not pass on the Breeds’ faults, which creates a much healthier dog.

The documents below are for viewing purposes only and not to be taken off of our website. These DNA tests are sent to a Lab called GenSol Diagnostics and send us the results. Only one parent needs the testing if cleared.

RATING “A” and “B” are good, you never want to breed a “C” rated dog because that means the dog is “affected” by the fault and can pass it on to the puppies.
