Welcome to the MDBA Pedigree Health Priorities Survey
This survey is open only to Australian Dog Owners
How to use this survey.
This survey has been developed by the Master Dog Breeders and Associates Health and Genetics Committee to determine the type and frequency of current health problems being encountered in the Australian purebred dog population-starting October 1, 2009. Please complete the survey for an individual Xoloitzcuintle. Multiple surveys will be necessary if you have more than one Xoloitzcuintle's data to enter or different health problems with an Xoloitzcuintle you have previously entered in the health survey. Personal information and pedigree information is NOT part of this survey and is not needed in any way to complete this survey. Information submitted is not identifiable by the MDBA and specific Xoloitzcuintle names are not requested.
After answering a few questions about your Xoloitzcuintle,You will be asked to identify any health problem(s) that affect your Xoloitzcuintle. Please be careful to enter a VETERINARIAN’S DIAGNOSIS from your Xoloitzcuintle health records. If a diagnosis is not listed or cannot be made, please select the description, “Other” and then describe the problem in the box provided. There are some conditions that are included (such as allergies, ear infections, temperament problems, etc.) that you may not remember or think of until looking at the actual health survey itself. So please review the list of disorders carefully.
This survey will assist in tracking changes in a breed's health issues. One of the major goals of this project is to assist Xoloitzcuintle breeders in making better breeding decisions by identifying the most significant health issues. This health survey will also be available to veterinarians and researchers to better assist them in caring for, treating and establishing research protocols for pure bred Xoloitzcuintle. Educational material will be developed from the results of this survey to better inform the public and future owners of health issues in Xoloitzcuintle
You are welcome to distribute this via your websites and it is easily printable to be handed out to people who would prefer to complete the survey and post it via mail.
