[nasha67]

hi i have 2 dogs max and toby both 3 yrs old i also have a 1 yr old bitch amber. i am looking to breed them somewhere down the line what age would be best for her. also what health screening tests will i need to have done. i have booked the 3 of them in to be PRA tested but what about getting hip scored any advice welcome

The other important tests are FN and the BVA/KC basic eye test for Gpra, Cpra and Glaucoma. It's very unlikely that the most suitable dog for your own bitch is your dog, I personally think there is no need to breed from a bitch before the age of 2 years old  .

You should also consider hip scoring - you have working type dogs I think and they are definitely not immune from Hip Dysplasia
