The Breeding Committees Main Goals:
- To keep the breed typical according to the STANDARD
- To aim for good temperament within the breed
- To reduce the number of affected dogs regarding hereditary diseases/
conditions
- To keep a gene-variation in the breed
The NTTK Breeding Committee tries to reach NTTK’s Main
Goals by:
- Keeping records of information regarding all hereditary diseases -
carriers/cases
- Making all results regarding HD, LL and PRA official in our Magazine
- Sending all LL and PRA cases to the TIIS List
- Educate breeders and owners about the hereditary problems so they know
the importance of following NTTK’s requirements/advices
- Recommending that all Tibetan Terriers should be:
- X-rayed after on year of age
- Eye-examined when the dog is 2,4 and 6 years old
- The dog must have permanent ID prior to those examiniations.
[Most dogs are marked with ID-chip]
Co-operation between NTTK and the breeders
We all think it’s important to be open and share our information
with each other and keep them in official records
The main attitude among the breeders is that NTTK’s rules are positive
and necessary for our breed. All serious breeders respect and follow them.
We shall never forget that the goal is not to exclude any dog from
breeding, but it is sometimes necessary to keep our breed healthy
