Welcome! The purpose of this List is to provide an opportunity for dedicated Golden Retriever fanciers to ask questions or request information of the GRCA Health & Genetics Committee (H&G) in a forum that will promote wide dissemination of information. Questions will be selected based upon their relevance and interest to serious breeders, exhibitors, and fanciers. Not all questions will be addressed.

The H&G cannot offer specific veterinary advice on individual cases, and will not discuss specific dogs, pedigrees, or breeders.

Please read and adhere to these List guidelines:
