Breedia Dog Forum
If I said to you Sue has probably spent over £20,000 on her last 2 Afghans in just a few years, can you see why she may not want another? ;)
Well killing Hen Pheasants in the breeding season is shocking, especially from a gundog. Id suggest she is no good with a hard mouth anyway as a...
But both from very respected and experienced breeders and exhibitors.
You are right, i just wish breeders would do more. Ive seen them run, I know they arent doped! :mrgreen: i I know you werent, they are an...
Hi. Can I suggest you read Sylvia Evans articles, you will be enlightened to say the least. Hypothyroidism, Auto Immune disease, Laryngeal...

Not at all. Laryngeal Paralysis is rife in Afghans, until recently its been ignored, my boss who has owned and showed Afghans for over 30yrs has had...
Shouldnt that be the responsibility of the breeder? NOT a rescue society willing to find the dog another home?
Do you think its reasonable to assume in their "role" as "companion" they should be able to breathe relatively easily, and at least walk a short...
Interesting that breeds like the Peke or Pug couldnt do 1 km let alone 20, but have not been seen as "UNfit for function" yet a dog who has passed...
Im sorry, are you serious? Laryngeal Paralysis Hypothyroidism Some Auto-Immune disease Its true to say many breeders choose to ignore the...
Unlucky indeed, CECS and Pyo can affect any dog.
Perhaps we could know the registered names of the puppy and its parents, a check on the KC website will then show the relevant tests have been done.
