DNA 🧬 COLLECTORS WILL BE AT BULLA SATURDAY THE 27TH OF DECEMBER
Approved DNA Collectors organised by the Breeders Education and Health Committee will be available to collect DNA swabs from your dogs at Lancefield Kennel Club at Bulla on Saturday the 27th of December. They will be located near the vendor area and will be collecting from 10am-4pm. Please bring your completed paperwork and your swab kit along with your 🐶 and blue Pedigree Certificate. Collectors will have extra swab kits and paperwork (Orivet and InfogeneNZ) available on the day if needed.

More information about DNA testing is available on the Dogs Victoria website under the heading >>Breeders>>DNA Parentage Verification https://dogsvictoria.org.au/breeders/dna-parentage-verification/

If you have any questions please email behc@dogsvictoria.org.au
We are volunteers and we are here to help!

The Dogs Victoria Breeders Education and Health Committee (BEHC) would like to wish you all a safe and happy Christmas.

Given this is a significant change, Dogs Victoria is looking at ways to make the introduction of mandatory DNA parentage verification as seamless as possible.
