Health and the Border Terrier.

Well, they say you cant keep a good dog down, and this is certainly the case for the Border Terrier, in general they are a robust, healthy breed with no major health concerns.   You will never get a breed that has no issues and problems will always arise, however I think its fair to say at present there are no diseases that Borders need to be tested for as a matter of course.

If you own a Border Terrier, please take a moment to download and fill in, and then send off the breed health survey.  Its very important to fill forms in for healthy dogs and those that have problems.  This is the only way we can gauge a true reflection of the breeds health status.
