North American Coton Association Code of Ethics Breeders have a previous recommendation from 1 of their peers and are not breeding more than 2 breeds of dogs. Each NACA Breeder is expected to do health testing that is appropriate to their lines. Puppy buyers are encouraged to ascertain what health testing a breeder has done on a puppy's sire and dam. Answers to many of your questions can be found on the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals website . You can see statistics on health testing at this site at: Stats. If you have questions that you need to ask your potential puppy breeder, please don't hesitate to do so. All health information should be revealed to you as a puppy buyer.

NACA cannot guarantee the quality, health, soundness, or suitability of a puppy you may decide to obtain from any listed breeder. It is the responsibility of buyers to determine if any Coton de Tulear puppy you may obtain from a breeder is healthy, sound, and meets your requirements.
