CERF Eye Exam. Andy will be examined our Board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist, Dr. DJ Haeussler, Jr, of Cincinnati, Ohio. Dr. Haeussler is a member of the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists.
TO NOTE: Andy has an umbilical hernia about the size of a large round grape. As a potential breeding sire, we were very concerned about this as we knew from raising swine that some hernias are hereditary. Our vet’s opinion is that it’s a simple fat-filled umbilical hernia and not anything that could be passed down to his pups. This sort of hernia doesn't impact his health or quality of life and can be easily fixed during any anesthesia procedure. As he’s a Carrier for MDR1, we haven’t rushed out to have it repaired, but will wait until we have a good reason to put him under. It doesn’t ever bother him, it doesn’t pose a health or injury risk, and upon examination, his abdomen is closed underneath the hernia.
Andy’s nature is that of a dog who is serious, yet easy going and willing. We joke that he was three years old the day he was born, because he was so grown up even as a baby.
He’s a very calm dog, and doesn’t get all tied up in knots when people are gone, or when a bitch is in season. When his people return, though, he’s very joyful: lots of happy panting and smiling, and he’ll occasionally jump up on his favorite person. He loves to nibble ears, and to have his own ears rubbed.
Andy’s biddability constantly amazes us. He can be running through the yard, but if you call him, he’ll turn on a dime and come immediately. We took a breeding announcement picture of Bonnie and him when Bonnie was in standing heat. He was on a length 550 cord with a simple “leave it” and then “stay”, and he never wavered, even though Bonnie would have been very happy to receive his attention.
