All Goldenzauer & Mochavulin Puppies will be registered with KUSA BREEDING RESTRICTIONS

 

Your puppy has been registered with a breeding restriction, which states “Progeny not eligible for registration”. What this means is that if you wish to breed with your dog the restriction remains in place until certain conditions are met. These conditions are in no way intended to discourage breeding with quality animals, but are there to ensure that our bloodlines retain their integrity and high standards.

 

It is therefore important that you disclose your intensions for your puppy to us because then we can assist you with showing and/or breeding and provide the necessary guidance to ensure the protection of our breeding lines as well as the Golden Retriever breed overall.  If you show an interest in breeding and/or showing you are welcome to contact me. The process for the lifting of breeding restrictions will apply ONLY after the puppy is 18 months old and ALL the health checks has been done.

 

The current conditions for breeding are:

  • A female can only be bred after the age of 20 months (preferably 24 months).

  • A dog can only be used at stud after the age of 18 months.

  • The female and the stud dog are to be given a clean bill of health by a veterinary surgeon and official certified certificates of results from Onderstepoort to be presented.

  • DNA tests for PRA to be performed (Inqaba Biotec) and certificates to be provided.

  • Hip and elbow Dysplasia test results must be no worse than 1:1 (if the score is 1:1 the stud / female must have a 0:0 score).

  • The female must have a current eye clearance certificate.

  • Full dentition must be present (absence of P1’s may be tolerated depending on overall quality). If P1’s are missing then stud dog must have full dentition.

  • The female must not suffer from any obvious hereditary diseases / defects.

  • Both dogs to be Breed Champions.

  • Stud choice to be approved by breeder of bitch.

  • Bitch to be approved by breeder of dog and vice versa.

  • Additional conditions will apply, depending on the situation, location and intension of the puppy owner.

 

Breeding is a serious commitment and is not for the fainthearted - should you wish to dedicate your time and efforts to breeding the Golden Retriever in an ethical and humane manner, you will have our full support and guidance.
