Complete list of Cesky Terrier health problems
This breed is so rare that there aren't many health statistics available. But one look at their deformed build (which is called chondrodysplasia) and it's obvious that they'll have orthopedic issues.... intervertebral disk disease, loose knee joints (luxating patella), and hip dysplasia.
All terrier breeds have problems with their skin, namely chronic allergies that cause itching and scratching.
Hereditary eye diseases and heart disease also occur in the Cesky Terrier.
Preventing health problems
Some health problems are inherited. For example, if your dog inherits from his parents the genes for an eye disease called PRA, he will go blind and there's nothing anyone can do about it.
But most health problems can be prevented by the ways you raise your dog.
