Have just been informed about a famous kennel in England Who are not members of the Standard Poodle Club. Bred a litter of 9 puppies from their sire,who has a full grown son with Sabaceous Adenitis.This kennel knew about this dog. Also seems to be one of those kennels that bred 4 litters within three months producing 27 puppies.All registered with the British Kennel Club.Have never seen or heard of any testing ever being done at this kennel.

One of the British Kennel Gazette issues + the Standard poodle Clubs newsletters on tested Poodles for SA the affected dog is listed there. Several poodle people in the UK know about this.These things are whispered,I was the only person brave enough to bring it out in the open.I wonder if the woman that bred to this dog was told that the dog had sired a very bad case of SA?Will these 9 puppies develope this terrible skin problem? What will happen to them,if their owners don't have the patience with them,or the money to pay for the many vet bills? Why also would a kennel wont to breed 4 of its poodle bitches within 3 months 28 puppies?I don't know the sires of these 4 litters. Have been told the kennel has been given forms to test their dogs for SA. Will repeat,the poos cannot speak for themselves,we have to do that for them.
