The best tool for breeders in the fight against canine hip dysplasia (CHD), to come along in years, is the SV's HD Zuchtwert, or Breed value assessment number (HD ZW). The HD ZW number is an estimation of the probability that a dog will produce progeny with CHD.
If you ever owned a dog when you were a child, you can probably recall the joy and exhilaration you felt every day, playing with your best buddy.

This is the American Bulldog, a breed that almost literally came back from the dead to become widely popular as both a working dog and a family pet.
