Breed Health Statement

The American Chesapeake Club (ACC) Board of Directors and the ACC Health Committee approved the following Health Statement for Chesapeake Bay Retrievers: The ACC Board of Directors strongly recommends that all breeding stock be free of Hip/Elbow Dysplasia, Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) in addition to all hereditary eye diseases, Exercise Induced Collapse (EIC), and Degenerative Myelopathy (DM) –tested Normal or otherwise. The above health statement was proposed by our ACC Health Committee then approved by the ACC Board of Directors on September 11, 2016, (ACC Board Motion 16:39).

Advertisers must be ACC members in good standing for a period of one year or more before placing an ad. The absence of OFA/CERF/PRA/DM/EIC information indicates to the buyer that they should inquire about these conditions/clearances. Inclusion on these classified lists does not imply endorsement by the ACC or guarantee health clearances. The ACC accepts ads in good faith. Guarantees or warranties (expressed or implied) are the sole responsibility of the advertiser.
