I know there are some veterinary clinics which offer "official" (their own) certificates.

It is what I forgot to write - it is exactly why we ask for the copies. By the eye examination we will also publish the date when the check was done. By other results we will post name of the veterinarian/clinic/lab who made the evaluation.

Yes, I understand it. Because of it the owners/breeders will be able to choose who will see the results given by them. There are four options planned:
1- the result will be visible to everyone
2- the results will be visible only to registered breeders
3- the results will be visible to "trusted" people
4- the result will be not visible and used only for statistics
(exception is HD/ED - it will be showed to everyone).
About point 3.: I was thinking to give access to people chosen by the official breed clubs (breeding comittee members, a.s.o). They will be able to see more results than even registered breeders (but still the will be not able to see "hidden" results)

It is no problem for me. Every result is important - even if it will stay hidden in the database it will be useful for the breed statistics.

It will be done so. The result will be not published - it will stay hidden.
I understand the whole problem: honest breeders publishing all test results will be always injured in comparison to breeders who publish only good results. Honest people will be always goal of witch hunts while not so serious breeders will hide even the worsest results.
It is while I'm for giving owners/breeders the possibility to hide the results (or show them to chosen groups of people).

Yes, it is good idea. We need only a group of "experts" (well informed people) who will be able to prepare reasonable time table: what and till when must be done. It is important to give breeders enough time to make the tests.
