It is often mentioned by those Cavalier Breeders who say that they have been Breeding Cavaliers for at least 30 years, so they are in a Position to know what they are talking about.
My Query is ,WHY HAVE THEY LET THE MVD PROBLEM get to such a Stage when they were warned by Dr P.Darke, the UK CLUB'S Cardiologist in 1983, yes 1983, after he had carried out Surveys for the CLUB at CLUB SHOWS,warned the CLUB then about how Serious and Wide-Spread the MVD Problem was in the Cavalier Breed.
As a Result of his Warning the UK CKCS CLUB issued MVD Breeding Guidelines for Cavalier Members in 1987.
Did those Long Term Cavalier Breeders not take any notice of Dr.P Darke's Warning?
To-day Researchers have said that nearly all Cavaliers could be Carriers of the MVD Gene/Genes.
This means that although those Cavaliers are not Afflicted with MVD ,when Mated to another MVD Carrier their Off-Springs could suffer from MVD.
Some Long Term Cavalier Breeders are now Claiming that they know more about the CM/SM Problem in our Cavaliers than .......
