Dave, We test for hearts, eyes, hips and patellae. I can certain direct you all to the OFA web site for the listings for every one of our dogs over two. However......I am most definitely not in favor of mandatory testing. So, in answer to your remark: No, everyone is not being dishonest, and yes, a lot of us aren't in favor of mandatory testing. We may have to accept it, but we aren't in favor of it. Myra
