The sire
DOB: 09.10.2016 
Height: 78 cm 
Weight: 50 Kg
Genetic tested and Health checked. 
Hip and elbow scores X rays under the BVA scheme done.
CACAO, is the son of the Multi South African Champion and grandson or Multi Spanish Champion. 
His pedigree is excellent with a large number of Multi Champions in his genealogical tree.
We have done all the health and genetic tests. Which I could send by email for your consideration.
He is free of Hip Dysplasia, JME free, Degenerative Myelopathy clear and Hemophilia clear as well.
CACAO is free of any genetically transmittable problem and in addition he is a carrier of a double ridge gene.
The result shows Dominant Homozygote (R/R) - 2 ridge genes.
The result interpretation is that a Dominant homozygote (R/R) possesses 2 ridge genes and passes 1 ridge gene to the offspring. Ridge is a dominant trait, therefore all puppies of a dominant homozygote have ridge. Very rarely, the ridge gene might be suppressed breeding with a Stud dog with 2 ridge genes.
