WHY DAPHNE?

The reason this dog matters to the programme.

Daphne is the starting point for Gwylltcalon because she brings the character we want people to live with every day: warmth, intelligence and a generous connection with her family.

Her health results and the named lines behind her give us a clear foundation for planning. The aim is to carry forward her best qualities while choosing a sire who adds his own strengths rather than simply repeating them.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

Hip scoring

Each hip is scored separately and the two figures are added to give a total. A result is one part of a breeding decision and should be read alongside the full veterinary record.

Elbow grading

The two-number result records the left and right elbow grades. The recorded grade is specific to the examination and does not predict every future joint problem.

GR-PRA1 and GR-PRA2

These are DNA tests for two inherited retinal conditions seen in Golden Retrievers. Clear means that the tested result did not identify the relevant variant on that report.

ICT-A

This DNA test looks for the variant associated with ichthyosis type A. A clear result is recorded for the tested dog; it is not a guarantee of overall health.

PLA / gonioscopy

Gonioscopy examines the drainage angle of the eye. The grade recorded on the certificate is considered with other eye information when a pairing is planned.

Eye testing

A veterinary eye examination records what was seen on the date of the examination. The certificate date and result should always be checked as part of the current record.
