On the occasion of the SV-Federal Assembly 2025, the following decision was made in terms of the HD/ ED diagnostic finding “still admitted”/ “noch Zugelassen”:
For admission to breeding within the SV-Studbook in Germany, the HD/ ED diagnostic finding “normal” or “almost normal” will be required for dogs born from January 1st, 2025. The diagnostic “still admitted” no longer suffices. This decision will take effect with the entry of the breeding regulation into the register of associations.
The diagnostic “still admitted” no longer suffices for breed surveys and the rating V at a breed show, provided the dog affected was born after January 01, 2025.
As a result, this year, all dogs with the diagnosis “still admitted” are still allowed to start at the BSZ Conformation Show and also obtain the ranking V.
Details regarding the changes of the respective regulations can be found in the July 2025 issue of the SV-Magazine.
