Do Your Homework and Resarch the Genetic Diseases of Your Desired Breed Before Buying a Puppy

Know Canine Disease. Here is an example:

Fanconi Syndrome: In the normal kidney, there is selective reabsorption of water, sugars, minerals, and amino acids so that these substances are not lost excessively in the urine. In a dog affected with Fanconi syndrome, there is a defect in the tubules of the kidney where this resorption occurs. Loss of these substances (that would normally be conserved) leads to various serious problems for the animal such as electrolyte imbalances, dehydration and weight loss. This disease can also be acquired in any breed (as opposed to inherited) as a result of various toxins (e.g., heavy metals).
