Biewer Terrier Health

Like all breeds, there may be some health issues. Some dogs may be faced with these health challenges in their lives, but the majority of Biewer Terriers are healthy dogs. Sensitive GI systems are common in the Biewer Terrier, so they may have an occasional soft or discolored stool. Although not life-threatening, if your dog has persistent problems with diarrhea or discolored stools, you should take him/her to the vet immediately. The Biewer Terrier is a relatively healthy dog, with no known excessive issues. That being said, we recommend the following tests for dogs before breeding.

Recommended Health Tests

  • Eye Examination by a board Certified ACVO Ophthalmologist
  • Patellar Luxation
  • Primary Lens Luxation (PLL) - DNA Test
  • Progressive Retinal Atrophy, PRCD (PRA-prcd, PRCD) - DNA Test
