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.
