Is there a breed club for the CSV in Hungary that makes recommendations for the breed? It is a requirement of the The Czechoslovakian Vlcak Club of America (though as Jing said, not the AKC) to have a CHIC number before breeding (HD, ED, DM, yearly eye exam, and submittal to the DNA repository required, with dwarfism, cardiac and thyroid recommended)...with just a few exceptions for older imported dogs, or if a foreign male is used. It's in our code of ethics...it is also written that only healthy dogs, or properly matched dogs in the cases of DM and dwarfism, be used. Also, obtaining a CHIC number requires all results to be public...
