The Royal Dutch Society for Veterinary Medicine (KNMvD), the Royal Dutch Kennel Club "Cynophilia" and the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Utrecht University are joining forces to improve the welfare and health of dogs and encourage responsible breeding. They are setting up a foundation to, among other things, create an independent quality mark for healthy and socially bred dogs. Some 1.2 million households in the Netherlands have a dog, accounting for 1.5 million dogs. After the cat, the dog is the most widely kept pet. An estimated 150,000 dogs are in demand every year. But where should you go if you are looking for a healthy and social dog? At a breed association, the animal shelter, a trader? In the future, every dog should be a healthy dog, which does not suffer from its appearance.
