Assured Breeders requirement. Kennel Club and University of Cambridge Respiratory Function Grading Scheme - the scheme tests for breathing ability (BOAS) and should be used for all breeding stock over the age of 12 months, and repeated every two years, for as long as the dog is being used for breeding. A number of regional assessors for the scheme can be found on The Kennel Club website.
