The term, "Responsible Breeders" signifies that the breeder has taken responsibility to do many things. One of them is to get a Wisdom Panel Premium DNA test or Embark, on their Volpino's before breeding If one parent is a Carrier then puppies have to be tested before they are sold and given to the new owner. They should also receive a AKC and or UKC Registration Certificate.

A great DNA test is Wisdom Panel, it tests 210 DNA tests for health found in different breeds and compares the DNA to our Volpino's. It also identifies the breed, if it's a Volpino or a mix. It's important for every breeder to do this before they breed, to insure puppies will be healthy. Wisdom Panel also identifies relatives, ancestry and color traits.
