The standards that the GSDCA had set for CHIC were the  highest of
any breed. 


<REPLY> Our requirements are middle of the road

http://www.caninehealthinfo.org/breeds.html

Thyroid, eye,heart, and DM are OPTIONAL

Click on different breeds

Belgian Tervs

Require Thryoid and Eye in addition to Hips, elbows

Goldens require eye and heart in addition to Hips and Elbows

Some require patellar luxation test

Cardis require PRA testing - and have almost removed the problem from their 
breed

Our participation was so low, Carmen thought we needed to lower the standards

And the discussion was very heated.

The golden Chic is much harder to obtain than the GSD CHIC, but their 
participation is 10X ours
