When purchasing a puppy, make sure you ask about health clearances in parents, grand-parents, parent’s siblings and other offspring of the parents. Much of the health information in the pedigree can be found at www.offa.org. A missing health clearance on the OFA site is a RED FLAG and should be investigated further.
We are proud to say that Upland Fields has a stellar history of producing healthy Field Spaniels. We have NEVER produced a heart murmur, hip problem, seizure, liver shunt, thyroid problem, cataract or any other serious health problem. The TOP priority in our breeding program is breeding for OPTIMUM HEALTH. All of our Sires and Dams have hip ratings of Excellent or Good. We only use the best specimens in our breeding program.
All of our puppies undergo early neuro-stimulation, receive complete health exams, receive heart checks, have CERF-type eye exams performed by an ACVO certified opthalmologist, get regular de-worming, receive their puppy shots, get micro-chipped are exposed to children and are well socialized before leaving for their new homes.
