The Kennel Club has a keen interest in the health and safety of all dogs and there are several ways in which it is seeking to improve both the identification and control of inherited conditions. This area of the website provides a wide range of information to aid a greater understanding of this important issue.

• Puppy health and safety
• If you think your dog may be ill or injured
• BVA/KC Health Schemes
• Registering with a Vet (link to the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons)
• Lost and Found Resources
• Neutering
• Finding alternative care for your puppy

The Kennel Club's mission statement is to promote the general improvement of the dog. It is hoped by developing a website (www.doggenetichealth.org) which makes the genetic makeup of the dog easy to understand, those with an interest in dogs can learn more about this subject and help ensure the breeding of healthy pedigree dogs.
