hhmmm...that is intreresting...If Scooby were still alive, I would have gotten a swab from him to send in...he was a Great Dane, his dad was a showdog from Canada, not sure about mom...but unfortnuately, they were brother and sister...Scooby's litter was not supposed to happen, but somehow brother got into the separate yard with sister, and then there were puppies...

The owners gave them away for free, with papers, with the conditions that they would all be spayed/neutered and not allowed to breed...and the understanding that there could be possible health related issues from the affair...
