Jonah is owned by Barb Fuhrer of Shasta Boxers and co-owned with Kti Jensen
Jonah has been diagnosed, via Echo Doppler by two different cardiologists with
Tricuspid Valve Dysplasia and Right Heart Enlargement.
As his breeder, I have discontinued breeding with that entire line due to similar issues, and do not recommend that Jonah be bred.
The OFA Cardiac Certification listed for this dog, was an AUSCULTATION ONLY examination.
Auscultation is effective at diagnosing heart sounds, but not heart structure.
Again, I do not recommend breeding with this dog.
Feel free to contact me for more information on Tricuspid Valve Dysplasia, and in the health test results from the rest of this litter.
