Sadly although Boxer do suffer with other issues these are the only ones deemed to be required by the BC code of ethics.

Spondylosis and HD .....are also seem in the Boxer all to frequently.......... the mean score is 16 (last time I looked)

German Spitz

Under investigation for eye problems - mainly MRD
Occasional incidences of epilepsy
slipping patellas occasionally in kliens

Recommended that parents have clear eye tests prior to mating and that pups are litter screened for retinal folds between 6 and 8 weeks.

Vallhunds

Under investigation for eye problem - known as J175 found so far in finland and USA
Average hip score in breed is 13.

West Highland White

From experience:

Legge Calve Perthes Disease
Luxating Patellas
Atopy
Dry eye? Last dog had it

AS - stethascope testing - only allowed to go on the heart test list when over 12 months old.
If dopplored for AS you see D against the heart list. The blood flow must be below 1.8.
Scoring accepted only from cardiologists on the breed listing.

Cardiomyopathy - troponin blood test, holtor monitor 24-48 hour (as per reccommendation from the cardiologist) and post mortem if allowed.

Cancer - sadly Boxers do suffer from a wide range of cancers. The AHT are collecting DNA samples, pedigrees etc to enable them to research further into the problem.

Hypothyroidism - blood test to confirm. Not routinely tested for/not required test from breed council or KC. Some feel there is a link with spay/neutering.
Especially where bitches are concerned.
Jury is out if it is hereditary or not in the breed.
A lot of US breeders do test for Hypo-t.

Incontinence after spaying

Seasonal Alopecia

Hip Displacia - not high incidence - or not reported to breed health committee. Breed mean score as per KC scheme is 16.

Bloat - Deep chested breed - therefore can be prone to bloat.

Skin/Allergies - can suffer with skin or allergy complaints.
Normally well controlled on hypoallergenic diets.

Can suffer with cruciate problems.

Corneal Ulcer - or Boxer indolent Ulcers.
Typically hard to heal, tend to suffer more with these in old age especially if you have young dogs in the house.

Corneal Distrophy - normally associated with the conditioned hypothyroidism.

Primary Inertia - Notoriously slow whelpers.

The only breeding reccomendation down via the Breed Council is to only breed from heart tested clear stock (AS).
New breeding reccommendations re cardiomyopathy are in progress.
