Checking Your Entlebucher
For Healthy Eyes

OshKosh getting her eyes checked for PRA & cataracts by Dr. MacMillan

To get your Entlebucher screened for healthy eyes, you must go to a veterinarian that specializes (or is "boarded") in Vet Ophthalmology.
Dr. MacMillan, of "The Eye Clinic for Animals" in San Diego, only does eyes (surgery, treatment & exams) because this is his specialty. He checks our dogs' eyes for both cataracts and Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA). Then he fills out a form that we must send in to the CERF (Canine Eye Registration Foundation) that officially registers the dog as having healthy eyes. They send you a certificate good for 1 year. We must repeat this eye test YEARLY on each of our breeding dogs.
