Lykos Health Database

What is the Lykos Health Database?

As a club who uses all tools available to to breed better dogs and making informed breeding choices, the Lykos Health Database is the tool we use to keep accurate health records on the bloodlines we use and those that are related to them.

The most important goal of the Lykos Health Database is to reduce and prevent incidence of any genetic disease in our dogs and bloodlines. The best way to prevent health issues is to have the knowledge of where the problems lie and may potentially lie in a dog's pedigree and to track where any issue and where it may have been derived from.

Recording and tracking this information assists our breeders to make informed breeding choices, so they don't unknowingly 'double up' on problematic health or temperament genes.

Any health issue (whether genetic or not in nature) may be reported.

Information on any dog can only be submitted by, or with the permission of the owner of the dog, breeder, or owner of the sire and/or dam of the dog.

All submissions will be reviewed for obvious errors, to ensure the consistency of the Lykos Health Database.

Information submitted become the permanent property of the Lykos Wolfalike Council of Australia Inc (LWCA).

The Lykos Health Database is for informational purposes only and is not intended to act in any commercial, professional or legal capacity. It is kept by the LWCA and used to assist registered breeders for their educational and research purposes, non-commercial use and not for purposes of resale, distribution, public display or any other uses by you in any form or manner.
