AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL KENNEL COUNCIL
The ANKC is the formal national registration body for all purebred dogs in Australia. The ANKC has formed breed standards for every pure breed of dog, which describe the ideal characteristics, temperament, appearance and soundness of each breed.
WHAT IS AN LUA
At one point in time, every purebred Dalmatian faced a genetic defect known as High Uric Acid. The High Uric Acid was a recessive gene, that affected their metabolisms and made them prone to bladder stones, uric crystals, and obstructions. The obstructions at times even lead to the death of the dog (a low uric acid dalmatian or LUA is no more susceptible than any other breed). A gentleman, by the name of Dr. Robert SCHAIBLE After only seven years, and five generations, Dr. Robert Schaible was producing puppies that resembled the common Dalmatian. In 1980 Dr. Schaible requested to register the new generation with AKC. After months of review, and consulting with the Dalmatian Club of America Board, it was agreed to allow the registration. Shortly after, an article was released, commending the accomplishments that the project was able to accomplish. The AKC president at the time, William Stifel, stated in the article: “If there is a logical, scientific way to correct genetic health problems associated with certain breed traits and still preserve the integrity of the breed standard, it is incumbent upon the American Kennel Club to lead the way.”
