In general, Lagotti are a pretty healthy breed. We have been fortunate at House Woller with regards to genetic health issues. We DNA test all of our puppy parents for known genetic conditions, prior to selecting a breeding match. As genetic research continues to advance breeders are able to begin to eliminate genetic conditions that have been identified within not only the Lagotti but in other loved breeds as well. Below is a list of current identified genetic health concerns that have been identified within the lagotti breed.
