Dachshund – All varieties registration requirements

  1. All Dachshunds must complete a pre-breeding health check every 12 months using the MDBA pre-breeding health check form. The results must be sent to the MDBA.
  2. Any new adult Dachshund breeding dog entering the MDBA registry after 1.12.22 must be tested by DNA for the MMVD gene variants. Result documentation is required before acceptance.
  3. Any Dachshund on MDBA-restricted papers requiring an upgrade to For Breeding papers from 1.12.22 must be tested by DNA for MMVD gene variants. Result documentation is required before acceptance.
  4. Any MDBA breeder member who wishes to register a Dachshund pup on mains papers as part of their litter from 1.9.23 must have either both parents tested or known by parentage or the pup tested for these gene variants. Result documentation is required before acceptance.
  5. If a stud dog or semen that has not been tested is used, the dam must have zero copies of this gene variant before breeding to ensure no puppies can be affected.
  6. The MMVD gene variant frequency is relatively low in MDBA Dachshunds. Any breeder who breeds a dog with two copies or with a dog with one or two copies will be seen to be in breach of severe welfare requirements.

No dogs will be removed from the gene pool or deemed unsuitable for breeding by the MDBA REGARDLESS OF THE RESULTS OF THEIR TESTS. The primary objective at this time is to enable educated breeding decisions, locate any dogs with one or no copies, and demonstrate the progress in this breed as we work toward having dogs with less risk of disease. It is not to take the ability to make decisions away from the breeder or to lower the gene pool diversity in any way. We highly recommend these two tests be done sooner rather than later and that results be sent to info@mdba.net.au. Health and DNA  results will not be listed on the pedigrees, and breeders are encouraged to send both the bad and the good results to the MDBA, even for dogs eliminated from breeding, to enable us to ascertain the frequency of problems and disease incidences in the breed.
