Brussels Griffon The Disease Diagnosable and Health Breeders
There is a “newly” diagnosable hereditary problem in the Brussels Griffon breed that maybe of growing concern and should merit monitoring by breeders of Brussels Griffons.

For example, neck scratching tendencies may become more pronounced at a dog show or when a dog is in a stressful situation.Reda More....
