What are the signs of cerebellar hypoplasia in dogs?

Signs of cerebellar hypoplasia usually become noticeable when puppies first start to walk. Affected dogs often display an uncoordinated, high-stepping gait, slower reflexes, and involuntary movements. Despite these motor challenges, the disease does not worsen over time, and affected dogs can adapt well. Definitive diagnosis is available through DNA testing of the VLDLR gene. Schedule a vet visit to get a clear picture. Our vets are also available for a consult if you want guidance before the appointment.
