Jaco Kennel IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THOSE THAT GOT A COTON DE TULEAR FROM THEM
I originally tried to reach out to them so they could be aware, but since they are closed, I can't. But everyone who has cotons who have SIMON SNUBB ROCK OR LADY LAURIE or any parents related to these two need to keep an eye out for spinal issues. My pup Magi, who was from the 8/24/2021 litter, originally named Leeann, is in hospital & had to have a multi-site hemilaminectomy due to four herniated disks in her spine, with a 50/50 chance of being paralyzed in her back end for life. The veterinarian said they highly believe the cause is genetics rather than any sort of trauma, & recommended me to reach out so other owners of pups related to her know to prevent any jumping & monitor for spinal issues, as quick attention & quick surgery can significantly up the chances of recovery (Magi went through two other emergency veterinarians before she reached one with the neurology staff capable of figuring out what was causing her back end paralysis, valuable time lost. Had she been seen by the specialist sooner she would have had an 80% chance of full recovery.)
