Thank you for the time and the advice. The testing is merely a precaution due to the history of the company whom has had a lot of food recalled.

I do believe I have to and am doing a lot of reading about the breed and care for the breed. Including their origin and health issues and how to quickly spot them early and avoid them. It will be some time before I try to purchase another due to having so much to learn about them. This was our second Pekingese. The first was given to us by a friend because he had a scar on his eye. We use to breed cats and did as you said but we allowed about one litter every 16 to 18 months. They are very time consuming. We didn't show them but some did very well in shows. Our cats were never caged.

The breeder I obtained Buster from had about 15 or so dogs and about half were on the stackable cages the rest was in custom pins that were nicely done and clean.

Yota, I have much to learn about Pekingese.

Thank you Blackdog22 and others for being candid.
