Breed-Specific Breeding Strategies

Breed and kennel clubs are continually working to assess and address the health of dogs. Breed-specific approaches are at the heart of this work. In some countries, through the national kennel club, there are mandated activities related to describing the health and well-being of a breed, defining and reporting on health concerns (including behavior/temperament) and designing and monitoring health programs. These programs are often enacted by national breed clubs. This section is divided into programs by country and by individual breed clubs.

  1. Breed-Specific Programs | Country

    Many national kennel clubs, other cynological organizations (e.g. breed clubs) have developed guidelines, approaches or programs to describe and evaluate the health of specific breeds; outline guidelines or regulations for screening tests or other assessments on potential breeding dogs; and raise awareness about issues in a given breed. These programs take different forms in different countries. In this section we will provide information on various approaches and programs and direct you to online resources.
