A few thoughts about Norwich health - let's take care of health issues!

• Upper Airway Syndrome in the Norwich Terrier

  (an article by Sue Lawrence, posted 29 Sep 2006 on the NNTC web site)

• Our breeding dogs are tested for the following:

   

  • CERF (Canine Eye Registration Foundation)

Name	CERF Number
Lovely Squirrel Magic Touch	NT-414
RichardsCastle Prinzesschen Narnia	NT-672
RichardsCastle Lady Moonlight	NT-673
RichardsCastle Maid Marian	NT-674N
RichardsCastle Baroness Assumpta	NT-675N

• O.F.A. (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals)

Maggie is now registered with the O.F.A.:

Hips - NT-320G25F-PI

Patellar - NT-PA154/25F/P-PI

• CHIC (Canine Health Information Center)

Maggie has her CHIC #: 48050

• American Kennel Club DNA Profile

Maggie's AKC DNA profile is on hand

• Laryngoscopy (examination of the larynx/upper airway)

We took our 12-month-old Norwich, Maggie, to see Dr Schultz in Michigan, to have her larynx checked for ELS (Everted Laryngeal Saccules). See the new page 'Trip to Michigan' for details!
