Canine Hereditary Diseases

Canine hereditary diseases are health conditions passed from parent dogs to their puppies through genes. These genetic issues can affect various parts of a dog’s body, such as joints, eyes, and organs, leading to problems like joint instability, vision loss, or heart issues. The risk of these diseases varies by breed, as certain conditions are more common in specific breeds. Responsible breeding practices, regular veterinary check-ups, and genetic testing can help reduce the likelihood of these inherited health problems, ensuring dogs live healthier, happier lives.
