Acta vet. scand. 1999, 40, 231-240. - A sample of the Swedish population was surveyed by in­ terviewing households by telephone . The number interviewed was 11,762, of which 15.5% owned dogs, and of these, 77.9% had one dog. The estimated total population of dogs in Sweden was just over 800 000. Dog-owning was more common in more rural ar­ eas compared to larger cities. The numbers of male and female dogs were similar and few dogs were neutered. Mean age was 5.7 years with median 5 years. Mongrels com­ prised 13.3% and the most common breed was the dachshund (7.4%). Ofdogs with in­ formation on insurance status, 68.4% of the dogs were insured for veterinary care and 58.3% were life insured . dog population; demographics; Sweden.

  • AKC Education Webinar Series: FSS/Miscellaneous Questions and Answers
    AKC Education Webinar Series: FSS/Miscellaneous Questions and Answers 1. Can an FSS Parent Club offer an ATT Test? If the Parent Club is licensed to hold any event, it may offer an ATT Test. 2. For a domestically evolving breed that started with an independent registry for 20 years, then accepted into UKC for an additional 20 years, can these two be combined to qualify for the 40 years required to be considered into FSS, or must the 40 be done within the same registry body? The history of a breed having a registry for a minimum of 40 years can be merged as described, staff will review to determine if it would meet the parameters required. 3. Does AKC have reciprocity with UKC? AKC has open registration with individual breeds with that are registered by UKC. A breed requesting to be enrolled in the AKC FSS based upon UKC recognition would have reciprocity, if it meets the number of years being in existence, until the breed becomes AKC recognized. At which time the individual breeds may request to keep the studbook open for UKC registered dogs. 4. Is it a good practice to submit all of the required data to AKC in one PDF electronically to FSS as a final submission, once all criteria is met for the ease of processing? The FSS Department keeps track of required data, meeting minutes maybe a PDF, the other requirements need to be in different formats. Breed Standard needs to be a word document, membership list needs to be in an Excel as provided.

  • BREED LIST Updates Nov 2014.Xlsx
    Breed List Updates - 2014 From 1995 to the present, Agria Animal Insurance, Sweden (Agria Djurförsäkring, Stockholm, Sweden) has provided data on both health care and life insurance claims for descriptive and analytical research. From these data, Agria has published extensively on insured dogs and supported work to present the data in a format useful for breed clubs (Agria Breed Profiles) and subsequent Updates. Not all breeds have enough dogs in the database to allow analyses. Veterinary Care Events (VCEs) are those visits to veterinarians for which the cost exceeded the deductible (self-risk) and a claim was processed by the insurance company. Dogs could be insured to any age, although the number of dogs insured declines at older ages. Certain restrictions of the insurance policies affect the statistics, e.g. behaviour problems are, in general, not reimbursable and are not included in these statistics. Mortality rates include events where, most commonly, a veterinarian assigned the cause of death and some cases (generally acute or accidental death) where the owner and a witness confirmed the death of the dog. The maximum age to which a dog could be life insured varied somewhat across breeds and years. Certain restrictions of the insurance policies affect the statistics.
