Crixus' Health Records

​

Hips - 8:8

Elbows - 1:0

​

Crixus was originally sourced as an outcross to our Lykos breeding program by his original owner. 

​

Crixus has very wolfy looks, rich colour, dark facial masking, light eyes and tall, lanky and wolfy body type. Crixus has a very happy temperament, very confident and loves people and other dogs.

 

Although his hip score was found to be a bit over our standards in relation to his hips, these scores are acceptable by many other breeding organisations world-wide. 

​​

Nonetheless, the resulting puppies from his unplanned litter with Neva (Lykosia Asena Dawn) ended up being fine examples of the Lykos breed, all with passing hip scores less than 10 in total and clear elbows. Crixus only sired the one litter with Neva in our breeding program and was then given away to a lovely pet home.

 

(Background story: We are always transparent about our breeding practices! Neva was bred to one of our White Shepherd studs Caspian. After the mating had finished, Neva seemed to have finished her heat cycle. It appeared nature had other ideas when Crixus came to us about a week or so after. We are more than open about this accidental litter with Crixus as he was not yet able to be health tested due to his age. DNA parentage testing confirmed Crixus was the sire and not Caspian. When he was old enough to be health tested, this was completed asap).

​Crixus unfortunately passed away in 2023 due to an obstruction after eating something he shouldn't have. Our love and thoughts go out to his family.
