You will be hard-pressed to find another breeder that offers a LIFETIME health guarantee like Spottadachs.
How can we afford to offer such an extensive guarantee?
By knowing our bloodlines, and genetics, as well as by health testing each of our breeding dogs we know what to expect and how to improve each generation.
We do not however claim to breed perfect dogs there will undoubtedly be genetics we can not yet test for that may arise which is WHY we offer a lifetime Genetic Health Guarantee, to cover the unexpected which we hope never happens but are too educated to hide our heads in the sand and say won’t possibly happen.
