Health Testing

  • VWD Carrier (Genesearch)
  • Thyroid - Normal at time of Breeding, went Low later. 
  • Cerf Clear
  • Pennhip Certified (DI .36)

  • Diagnosed with CAH at 3 years, treated with natural supplements and dietary changes,  currently 9 1/2 years old. 
  • WSU Dr Kate Meurs DNA Cardio Test - Negative 
  • January 2011 at almost 10 years of age, Hayley slipped on the ice in the yard and tore her CCL (Cranial Cruciate Ligament)  Due to her liver condition and age, she is not a good candidate for surgery and we are treating with physio, supplementation to strengthen ligaments. She has recovered enough to get around, and we are hoping she makes it to past her 10th birthday on April 30, 2011.
  • Hayley turned 10 Apr 30/11 and is now Can Ch Supernova Powerplay v Denmel - LC 10  (Longevity Certification with the DPCA).

We were thrilled when Catherine Eiswerth of Supernova Dobermans leased Xena. Hayley lives here at Denmel Dobermans and was our pick from the breeding of Xena to Cathy's Axel.   Hayley is one of 5 Champions from this litter.

Hayley is pictured  finishing her Championship under Judge Dani Canino. Hayley was handled mainly by Peggy Mignon, but shown above finishing her Championship owner-handled.  Hayley was bred once to "Shelby" BISS Am Ch Richwyn's Hot Rod via frozen semen which produced 10 lovely babies.  She was the best mom we have had as far as feeding her 10 babies and tolerating their antics.  We showed 3 of her offspring to their Canadian Championships in 2004 which gave Hayley the ADPC award for  Dam of the year 2004. 

Soon after her litter our health testing showed Hayley with elevated liver enzymes.  After several blood tests, bile acid test and a liver biopsy, she was diagnosed with CAH (previously known as Copper Toxicosis).   Hayley was treated with dietary changes and natural supplements only, and she is currenly 10 1/2 years of age.  We hope to keep Hayley with us and healthy for much longer, but only time will tell.  Her daughters Mira and Seven were tested before being bred and showed no sign of any liver problems, and are still healthy at 8 years of age.  However, I believe that breeders need to practice honesty in order to avoid and eradicate all our breed health issues and this is why I share this information about Hayley.
