Hi Guys,
I'm just writing an email to my breeder to ask about allergy history with Gilly's lines/littermates, and I'm wondering what sort of things a breeder would want to be updated on?
Here are some examples of things I dont know if the breeder would want to know:
Gilly's right foot is pigeon toed inwards. She's in no pain, has had x-rays and both vet and radiologist say it's just conformation and no evidence of ED or chips or anything of hte sort. Should I let my breeder know about the pigeon toe even though it's just conformation?
Gilly seems to have a bit of entropion. She's had an eye infection once but we're not sure if that was related to the allergies or if it was from what the vet says is a really mild entropion. Tell my breeder?
How often do you like to get updates with pictures, news, etc? I'm not "close" with the breeder and life can be hectic, so i'm not emailing her every month or anything, but would you be concerned if you weren't getting updates regularly?
I know that breeders like to be updated with health concerns, but I don't want to go overboard emailing her with every little concern!
