Health Initiatives and Debated Issues since the formation of the GSD Breed Council in 1986

This list of Breed Council Health Initiatives and Debated Issues has been supplied by Chris Hazell - GSD Breed Health Co-ordinator.  Copies of some articles may be available from the Breed Council secretary.   Please contact Sheila Rankin here, who will advise on the availability and cost.

The list is available as a PDF file here and also available from our Downloads page. 

You will need a PDF reader - most computers already have one installed.  If necessary, you can download Adobe Reader free of charge from here (if you have your own virus scanner, you may wish to remove the tick in the box regarding McAfee).

Would you be interested in sharing this Survey with anyone you know of who has a dog being treated for Epilepsy.
