Inherited disorders by breed

I thought this might be of general interest. I imagaine there would be a similar thing done by a UK university.

good site SB.

Yes it was interesting

Lots of interesting points.

Very intersting read - I've seen something like this before, when I was research what breed to choose.

Thank you SB one to retain for reference purposes

Interesting sight but best to bear in mind that not all inherited disorders are relevant to all countries, some in the USA or Australia are not known in the UK and I dare say there are some in the UK that are not a problem in the US.

The best way with any particular breed is to ask the breed clubs in the country you are going to buy a puppy in. If you are looking at the stock of 2 or 3 breeders then it can help to ask them too, if nothing else it gives you an idea about how much research they have put into their breeding as any caring breeder will be happy to tell you what problems there are in the breed and let you know what they have done to lessen the risk of your pup being prone to one of them. I know of a couple of such lists from the USA but not the UK, so for those in the UK the best bet is the breeder and the breed club.

Ive book marked it- will enjoy reading it
Thanks SB
