Things to keep an eye on
Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA)
highPRA is a genetic condition that causes the gradual deterioration of the retina, potentially leading to vision loss. Early detection through regular eye exams is important for managing the condition.
Schedule annual eye examinations with your veterinarian to monitor vision health.
Hip Dysplasia
moderateThis is a condition where the hip joint does not fit together perfectly, which can lead to discomfort or mobility issues over time. It is a common concern in many medium-to-large dog breeds.
Maintain a healthy weight to reduce unnecessary stress on your dog's joints.
Skin Irritation
lowDue to their unique corded coat, Pulis can be prone to trapped moisture or debris, which may lead to localized skin irritation. Proper grooming and drying are essential to keep the skin healthy.
Ensure the coat is thoroughly dried after bathing or exposure to wet weather to prevent moisture buildup.
