Health issues
Okey, i have always research for what is typical health issues on kai.
I have try to find a post about this here but after looking through 11 page i couldn't find a post that only handle about health issues on Kai - just Hips and check about that - where some other problems have been mention
in research on net you can find info about health issues / Problem like this:
HD / Hips
PRA - Progressive Retinal Atrofi
Bloat
And in the earlier thread here it was mention
ACL
LP
Spine
And i was reading here that it have been a few Kai with epilepsy..
What is normal health issues on Kai, and what is not?
Some say's it don't exist health issues on this breed......
I just post it here so everyone can get the info about it, we all need to know what's the truth about the health is

Hips. Elbows, Eyes, Patella and thyroid ?
I haven't done thyroid check on my Kai, but is that a big issues on Kai ?
But i gonna do it so fast i can
And always do the health checks before breeding. Then it's easier to choose right pairing. And when talking highly inbred lines like we both have you should pay extra attention to health tests and redo then every now and then. PRA can be expressed when your dog is older than three years old. We also have few megaesophagus cases but those dog were imported from Japan.
I also have plans to check Beauty's eyes every year, because of PRA
But yeah i can see that it's a good answer for all NK breed
I know here in Norway the breeders don't talk about issues on the NK breed - and then it's more difficult to find out what's a common problem and what are uncommon ( i hope it's right to write it like that )
