4️⃣ Coat colors and genetics must be defined to ensure proper health testing and breeding outcomes.
5️⃣ Breed-specific health concerns should be established to determine which Body Scores & Genetic Tests apply.
6️⃣ If a breed is "Open," "Restricted," or "Closed" for creation by others, this must be specified.
7️⃣ Once approved, the breed is added to the CSKC Created Breeds Registry and can be used in shows, breeding, and sports.🎯 CSKC Created Breed Registration Form
