The Heart of Ohio made a commitment when forming this club to be concerned about the health and welfare of the Sussex (Code of Ethics.)  AKC has an organization called the Canine Health Information Center (CHIC) which allows Parent Clubs to specify testing that needs to be done prior to breeding.  HOSSC as a regional club wanted to be proactive, so we developed and implemented the Star Breeder Program

In this program breeders are awarded a star for each of these tests: PDP1, Eyes, Elbows, Heart, Hips, DNA. The BAER (hearing test) is awarded as additional *.

It is a simple program whereas the breeder only has to have submitted proof  that Health testing has been completed on all their dogs of breeding age, (2 years through retirement.)  We do not require actual test results to be provided to give Stars.
