Why We Health Test Every Dog in Our Program
Health testing isn't optional — it's the foundation of responsible breeding. Here's what we test for and why it protects your investment and your family.
Every dog in the Crunchtyme Bullies program undergoes comprehensive health screening before they ever enter our breeding program. This isn't something we do occasionally or when it's convenient — it's a non-negotiable part of our process.
Our DNA panel tests for over 200 genetic conditions. This allows us to make informed breeding decisions that minimize the risk of hereditary health issues. When we say 'DNA Clear,' we mean it — and we have the paperwork to prove it.
Cardiac screening ensures that the heart is healthy and functioning properly. Bully breeds can be prone to certain cardiac conditions, so this screening is essential. We also conduct regular veterinary wellness checks throughout the year.
Health testing costs money — that's a fact. But it's an investment in the quality of our puppies and the peace of mind of our families. A few hundred dollars in testing can prevent thousands in emergency vet bills down the road. That's a trade we'll make every single time.
