Dolly Bell of Golden Duck
About Dolly Bell of Golden Duck
Dolly Bell of Golden Duck is our newly imported female from Serbia. While new to our program, her background and qualities are much like Tango’s, bringing strong Serbian lineage, excellent health clearances, and a balanced temperament. Dolly Bell is expected to contribute significantly to our English Cream Golden Retriever breeding efforts, continuing the tradition of health, temperament, and breed standards established by our Serbian imports.
Dolly Bell is clear on several important health screenings, including:
- JCH ICT (Ichthyosis): A genetic skin disorder causing thick, scaly skin patches resembling fish scales. While not painful, it requires special care to manage and prevent secondary infections.
- HD-A (Hip Dysplasia) and DD-O (Elbow Dysplasia): These are developmental joint diseases that can cause pain and mobility issues. Clear status indicates no signs of these conditions, ensuring strong joint health.
- PRA-1 (Progressive Retinal Atrophy): An inherited eye disease leading to gradual vision loss and eventual blindness. Clear status means Dolly Bell does not carry this mutation.
- 2 CLEAR (Ichthyosis Type 2): Another form of congenital ichthyosis causing skin scaling and thickening, with clear status indicating Dolly Bell is free of this genetic mutation.
Additionally, Dolly Bell is certified clear for hips, elbows, and heart, confirming her excellent overall health and suitability as a female for our English Cream Golden Retriever program.
Dolly Bell was born on July 4, 2023.
