At the moment I'm in the process of redesigning the site. This means that there may be the odd disruption when I break something. :)

All the breeds of dogs and the diseases they are predisposed to have now been added, well at least the ones I have information on

Over the next few days I'm going to add images of each breed and continue adding other, hopefully, interesting articles and reports to the site.

Come back soon :)
