Importance of canine eye testing
Testing is particularly important if you’re thinking of breeding from your dog, and for those who are, you need to have all your health tests in place for both the mother and father beforehand- so visit the KC team to talk about those relevant for your breed.
The KC is the largest organisation in the UK devoted to dog health, welfare and training and also runs the UK’s largest registration database for pedigree dogs and an activity register for crossbreed dogs. The objective is to ensure that dogs live healthy, happy lives with responsible owners.
Kennel Club Charitable Trust
This supports research into dog diseases and many dog welfare charities, including The Kennel Club Breed Rescue where organisations rehome dogs and assist dog charities. Through the Trust, the KC also jointly runs health-screening schemes with the British Veterinary Association (BVA) and funds The Kennel Club Genetics Centre at the University of Cambridge – which is at the forefront of pioneering research into dog health.
