Hello all , I was just wondering when we get Calypso and take her to the vet for the first time are there any speciific tests that should be done concerning husky health issues in general?

Since she's so young, I doubt it. A lot of times it's good to get a stool sample done in case she has worms (most puppies do, but not all the time). They'll just administer her first round of shots and check for physical health. If you notice anything odd with her when you bring her home before the vet visit, you should bring those up with your vet to see if they are anything of concern.

This is all assuming you're bringing home an 8-12 week old puppy.

Thank you , and yes I will be bringing home an 8 week old puppy. I am expecting the usual stuff, just didn't know whether to request some other special tests to be done.

When she reaches 2 years old I think, if you were to want to get her hips and eyes certified that is the age you would do it, otherwise I don't think there are too many tests they can do at such a young age. Heartworms take 6 months to grow so she won't need that done and as long as you do the regular vaccinations and get her started on a heartworm / flea preventative (or whatever you prefer) you should be good.

Thank you very much for your help !
