The Swedish Vallhund is a hardy breed with few health problems and many living into their teenage years. Breeders are committed to health testing and make use of the schemes available to them, using the results to make responsible breeding decisions. All members of the SVS agree to have their dogs Hip Scored and Eye tested before breeding.
