DNA Health Testing Considerations | A plethora of canine DNA health tests and genetic testing providers are on the market today, and it can be difficult for breeders to determine which tests are applicable and useful. Tests vary from one single test for a specific genetic variant related to a disease to multiplex panels that provide results for hundreds of genetic variants at once. | | | Managing Weaning Diarrhea | Even if you follow all the recommended steps to a successful weaning, puppies can still experience weaning diarrhea. Russ Kelley, Scientific Services Nutritionist – Royal Canin U.S., answers some common questions about weaning diarrhea to help breeders better understand its causes, along with tips for reducing its likelihood of occurrence. | | | Optimize Nutrition throughout the Reproductive Cycle | Diet is critical not only to puppies, but also for the health of the breeding female, whose nutritional needs vary with the stage of reproduction. The amount of added dietary energy needed to support a mother and her puppies can range from 0% to 300% or more, depending on the reproductive stage and litter size. | | | Notice to Breeders About Changes to Marketplace | The AKC is continuously striving to improve the features and security of AKC Marketplace accounts for breeders. We are rolling out an improved email process that will get inquiries to your inbox more reliably AND ensure that you are kept safe from scammers. Coming soon: | Enhanced Account Security | - In order reduce scammers' ability to access your personal information, we are eliminating the ability to reply directly to a puppy buyer via email. We will still send you an email when a buyer starts an inquiry; however, you will now be required to log into Marketplace Messenger to respond to the inquiry.
- We recommend building trust with your puppy buyer first and getting to know them first before you share your personal information.
| The purpose of these changes is to protect the sensitive information of all Marketplace breeders and customers. We appreciate your patience as we implement these changes. If you have any questions, please contact akcmarketplace@akc.org. | | | Canine College Breeding Fundamentals Course | Ready to elevate your breeding skills?
