Breed Certification Exams for Dogs & Cats in Plano, TX

At Animal Eye Specialists in Plano, Texas, we offer breed certification exams to evaluate dogs and cats for hereditary conditions prior to breeding. These screenings help ensure that only healthy, genetically sound animals are used in breeding programs, promoting the long-term health of the breed.

What to Expect During the Exam

Your pet will be thoroughly examined by a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist, using advanced tools to detect inherited or congenital abnormalities. The exam is quick, painless, and non-invasive—typically completed in just a few minutes. Results can be submitted to organizations like the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) for official certification.

Why Certification Matters

Many breed clubs and registries require certification exams to prevent the spread of genetic diseases and maintain high standards. Even if your pet appears healthy, some conditions may not show obvious signs but can still be passed to offspring. Annual certification is often recommended for active breeding animals.
