Has anyone else had to do this with a pup? Thanks for reading!
Yup we have had to one time. It's genetic so we put down that pup, his siblings , his mother, his daddy and everything in the kennel that had had any blood from the old gyp who started it all. I am talking some top notch finished dogs had to go to, not just pups. Not only that, we called everyone who had any dogs with any of that old Gyps blood in them and told them. Took a while and some money to get it all traced back but we felt that was necessary. You are just fooling yourself to do other wise in my opinion. There is no cure for it. I never want to go through that again.
No if's, and's or but's about it, it is genetic and it will rear it's ugly head again, all it takes is breed to two "carriers "who may themselves show no signs, but carry the gene. Yes there is a DNA test.
