Eli's doing awesome after surgery, it has been a HECK OF A TIME trying to keep her out of the water, sahe almost got in! And I am having to keep her inside and put her on a leash when I take her outside until her scar heals. And they vet took from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm to spay her. And no, she wasn't pregnant, because she wasn't in season.

I know Hooch is an awesome example of the DDB because of his great standard for the breed, if you check the standard, you'll see.
He has had ALL the tests for the DDB when he was a pup, and he gets the tests *just in case* every 2 years.
He hasn't won any shows, but he has a great standard
