British Veterinary Association

BVA and the Kennel Club work in partnership to provide a number of health screening programmes - the Canine Health Schemes (CHS). The Canine Health Schemes enable breeders and dog owners to screen for a range of inherited diseases so they can make informed decisions as to whether those dogs should be bred from.
