| BREEDERS -Have you an Undocked Litter of puppies? Contact The Alliance for advice and help in promoting your undocked litter. Please note we cannot 'vet' your litters but will expect responsible ethics in dog breeding. BREEDERS if you have a swimmer puppy take a look at this http://cockerspanielinformation.com/ before you have the puppy put to sleep. BREEDERS - watch out for loose fibres on fleece bedding as puppies can ingest and die. |
MEMBERS - Do you want information on breeders of undocked docked breeds? Contact A.D.A. |
| 1998> PAIN - Recent research has shown that neonates are HYPERsensitive rather than HYPOsensitive as has been widely believed. Neonates have an intact sensory central nervous system that does not have descending modular pathways that act as pain blocks seen in adults. Research has also shown that the memory of neonatal pain can affect the animal in its adult life. Symptoms include decreased pain threshold, anxiety, social disorders and aggression.

| IT WILL BE ILLEGAL FOR PUPPIES TO BE DOCKED after April 2007 (30th April Scotland). Any puppy that has been docked as a Working dog covered by the exemptions must hold a Veterinary Certificate to say it has been done lawfully. Check photos out on this site to see what an undocked dog looks like HEALTH CHECKS which should be carried out on parent dogs for the following docked breeds before a puppy is purchased are listed against the breeds below. (ALSO SEE Kennel Club website for GENETICS http://www.doggenetichealth.org/ Preferably buy from dogs which are kept in a domestic environment and not kennels as these should be better socialised and temperamentally more suited to their new family setting:- Never buy from a puppy farm e.g. (where there are lots of different breeds or pet store. 2007 KENNEL CLUB has stated that in all judging books this statement be added:- 'In assessing dogs, judges should penalise any features or exaggerations which they consider would be detrimental to the soundness, health and well-being of the dog'. |
DOG BREED STANDARDS (with tails) check these out for your breed before purchasing a puppy. 03/04 The Kennel Club have launched an Accredited Breeders' Scheme with a code of best practice.

EYES: Occasional cases of ectropion and entropion, inheritance unclear. Can be surgically treated. SKELETAL: Elbow dysplasia especially fragmented coronoid process (FCP) type tends to be polygenically in herited with relatively high heritability (over 40%). Breeders should continue to place emphasis on hip scores.OTHER PROBLEMS: Hypothyroidism is sometimes seen and can lead to the destruction of the thyroid gland due to the dog's own immune system attacking the gland. Leads to rough scaly skin hair loss and weight gain. Mode of inheritance uncertain but may be recessive trait. Liver problems caused by portosystemic shunt tends to intrahepatic type (blood vessels in the liver are abberrant causing abnormal blood circulation and impaired metabolism) Mode of inheritance uncertain. Cerebellar ataxia has been reported and leads to loss of Purkinje's cells of the cerebellum and to abnormal movement and head shaking. Usually lethal and thought to be caused by autosomal recessive trait through genetic cause. |

Full tail set high, carried horizontally or slightly lower. Malcolm Willis (Geneticist) says that being a numerically small breed (French) there are not many animals in the UK in which to study problems. Umbilical and inguinal hernias may be found and the former is inherited. He suggests that small hernias be left alone and operations and breeding decisions should be confined to larger hernias. Cryptorcchidism (undescended testicles) possibly in 1-2%. Hypothyroidism (thyroid ddamaged by dog's own immune system) will sometimes occur. Entropion will be seen occasionally as will overshot bites and missing teeth. Mode of inheritance in any of these is unclear. Heart and circulatory systems Haemophilia A is known in breed and is inherited as a sex link recessive trait found on x chromosome, therefore rarely seen in females although they can be carriers and appear normal. When it does occur is usually due to a mating between normal male to a carrier female whose status was unknown. The end result would be half males would be normal and half would have haemophilia although values could alter in litters. An affected male if bred from will have 100% normal males and 100% carrier females. Males could be used without risk but females who could lead normal lives should not be bred from. The condition varies from mild to severe bleeding resulting in death. Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA). This is a heart condition where the blood vessels between the aorta and pulmonary artery fail to close properly after birth. These vessels are normal in the unborn but if they persist after birth they can cause heart murmurs and can lead to sudden death. PDA is believed inherited and to be polygenic. |

Hereditary cataracts, angle closure glaucoma, faulty bites , missing teeth, unilateral or bilateral cryptorchidism; atopic dermatitis which can involve immune system. Malcolm Willis (Geneticist) says: WSS do not have many reported defects as the ESS but possibly because it has lesser numbers. EPILEPSY: most serious is primary epilepsy which can be caused by a variety of things (disease, tumours, nutritional imbalances, certain poisons, even teething in pups) but primary or idiopathic epilepsy is an inherited trait also found in other breeds such as GSDs, Belgian Shepherd, Labs, Retrievers etc.Usually more common in males and usually between 12 months and three and a half years although can occur outside that range. Possibly a major gene is implicated. If fitting is caused by some externall influence (poison) then if removed or treated, the fitting should disappear. In idiopathic or primary epilepsy the animal cannot be cured though drugs can help reduce severity. EYES: Hereditary cataracts are reported in the breed from early life and inherited as simple recessive trait.Testing can identify those affected but does not identify carriers though they can be traced through pedigrees. Angle closure glaucoma - thought to be a dominant trait but can be very late onset. Pressure build-up in eye can lead to blindness and if a dog is a carrier it will eventually show it although not obvious in youth. OTHER PROBLEMS "Show defects" such as faulty bites, missing teeth, unilateral or bilateral cryptorchidism (retained testicles) Atopic dermatitis where there is an adverse reaction to various allergens such as insects or pollen which can involve the immune system. SKELETAL: This is a bred tht should be routinely hip scored. The fact that a dog appears sound may not indicate freedom from Hip dysplasia. Canine Epilepsy Support Group Mrs. Anne Morley, Helpline 08707 469 329 KC Accredited breeders should hip score and eye test including gonioscopy A gene for a form of inherited canine epilepsy has been discovered.

Genetic ocular problems. PRA (progressive retinal atrophy) although not confirmed is likely to be autosomal recessive usually occurring by 3 days of age. Cataracts and inheritance suspected but unproven. Glaucoma can be secondary to some other problem but primary glaucomea can been seen and probably inberited. Entropion (inturned eyelids) probably inherited as polygenic trait - in the Vizsla usually lower lids. Immune mediated thrombocytopaenia - blood contains platelets or thrombocytes concerned with blood clotting and with this condition the numbers are reduced.
