Health Problems in the Swissy

The GSMD suffers from a variety of serious and expensive health problems including hip dysplasia, epilepsy, OCD, and urinary incontinence. We suggest that you do all you can to educate yourself about these problems so you can find a breeder who is doing the necessary things in their breeding program to lower the incidence of hereditary disease".
