MEET
IVY!
February
2013
I am heartbroken to have to retire my little
"Widget" from being an
active participant in the future of Highfalutin'
Poodles. With her
fabulous temperament, diminuitive size and
beautiful looks, she has
been a treasured member of our gang.
Where's the hot chocolate?
Ivy has been diagnosed with SA, Sebaceous
Adenitis, a hereditary skin
disease. It is treatable and usually
only cosmetic in nature so we expect
her to continue to charm all she meets,
no matter how much or how
little hair she might have!
As I have said before when I have been faced
with health issues in
my dogs (on my website, refer to Brie, Dah,
Lola, Cookie..a more
comprehensive listing of the Highfalutin'
dogs is on Poodle Health
Registry) it is vital that breeders fully
disclose any problems they
encounter and make the information public
via websites such as OFA
(offa.org)
and the Poodle Health Registry (phrdatabase.com).
With
this knowledge, breeders can make more informed
choices and move
forward to a brighter future for this wonderful
breed.
