We received the OFA Scores for Calypso today. While certainly not the results we were hoping for, we are happy that they are loved and so well cared for. This is one of the hardships that comes with breeding, is that not every dog is going to have all the perfect things that we want for them.
We are working, not only with Mandi, but as always all of our puppy buyers, everyone in our Legacy family. We don’t yet know what this is going to mean for the future of our program with these lines as we strongly re-evaluate and consider what is best.
We have to take the genetic diversity of our beloved breed into consideration as well as all of our long-term goals. We were very careful in raising this litter, as well as our current litter on very sound surfaces, making sure everybody had plenty of traction and doing everything that we know of to provide early stability.
We were careful in our selection when looking at studs, and discussed with multiple experienced breeders before our final decision; but even when you do everything you possibly can mother nature will throw us curveballs.
As always, we are open to questions, and we are always transparent with our dogs. We welcome any questions or concerns directed to our messages! Please be patient with our responses as we process this. We are still waiting on Lloyd’s results. Thank you!
