We are always happy to talk about accepting outside partners for our boys if required but we will not in future be accepting any girlfriends who are not DNA tested  for available health issues known in the breed where possible. All Tunamara Dogs are tested therefore we do not wish to encourage the creation of unsoundness or future health problems in pups from our sires where testing is now available

Certificates are available on request and general results are below each dog

With Regard to DNA testing, All tests carried out by UC Davis lab in USA. (http;//www.vgl.ucdavis.edu/) or Orivet Australia. Results read: 

Eye Screen - A visual scan of the eyes by a technical specialist considered temporary over 2-3 years and superceded by DNA tests as tests are developed. Our breed current DNA tests came available in late 2014 and we are endeavouring to gradually check all of our dogs for complete litter expectations. I cannot speak for other breeders but as for ourselves this will be an invaluable tool for producing healthier puppies through selective parent choices. 

PRA - Low Risk, the best result we can get on current testing, the dog is unlikely to develop PRA.

FEH - Normal for Familial Enamel Hypoplasia (Offspring from 2 normal parents will also be normal).

Glaucoma - Low Risk means that the dog has a -2% chance of developing this complaint and passing this gene onto litters but a low risk partner will further reduce this risk (The best result we can get on todays tests).  

CDA -  Colour Dilute Alopecia can affect Blue and Blue related dogs and if they inherit this gene they may lose their hair on head, tail and down back gradually spreading all over the body. All dilute coloured dogs carry this gene we can only minimise it to a Low Risk result.
