    Health Problems of American Eskimo Dog versus Health Problems of Glen of Imaal Terrier

    Every dog breed has its own set of health problems that it has a tendency to develop. There is nothing like a perfect dog breed.

    Both the American Eskimo Dog and the Glen of Imaal Terrier are prone to certain genetic health conditions. The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) is the organization that keeps track of health problems in dogs. Based on the extensive records that the OFA keeps, the OFA knows what health problems each dog breed is naturally prone to develop. Hence, the OFA recommends which health screening that breeders should perform on a dog breed to make sure that the breeders won`t breed `defective` dog parents that can pass down defective genes to their puppy offspring.

    The more health problems a dog breed is prone to develop, the more health tests the OFA will recommend for that dog breed.

    Based on our review of OFA records, we found that the American Eskimo Dog is prone to more genetic health problems than the Glen of Imaal Terrier.

    This is because the OFA recommends more screening health tests for the American Eskimo Dog than for the Glen of Imaal Terrier.

    8 health tests are recommended for American Eskimo Dog while 4 tests are recommended for the Glen of Imaal Terrier.

    Below is a detailed discussion of health problems in American Eskimo Dogs and in Glen of Imaal Terriers.

    If you want a American Eskimo Dog puppy that will grow up to be healthy, make sure that your American Eskimo Dog breeder screens your puppy or your puppy`s parents for the health problems that the OFA recommends for your puppy`s breed.

Always ask a breeder for the list of health tests the breeder screens their dogs for before buying a puppy from such a breeder.
