Sheepdog Handling: Introduction (Intermediate 2) 4 National Unit Specification: support notes UNIT Sheepdog Handling: Introduction (Intermediate 2) This part of the unit specification is offered as guidance. The support notes are not mandatory. While the exact time allocated to this unit is at the discretion of the centre, the notional design length is 20 hours. GUIDANCE ON THE CONTENT AND CONTEXT FOR THIS UNIT This is an introductory unit to other units on sheepdog handling. It allows the candidate to gain a useful background knowledge both of the history behind the development of these dogs and the necessary criteria for selecting the correct dog for any given purpose. Outcome 1 This outcome should be of interest to all those involved in breeding or working with sheepdogs. An in- depth knowledge is not required, only a general overview of the history and development of sheepdogs. The role of the International Sheepdog Society in promoting and improving the working ability of sheepdogs should be emphasised. Particular reference should be made to the role of the International Sheepdog Society in the eradication of hereditary conditions and in the registration of working dogs. Outcome 2 The range of breeds includes some which are no longer regularly used for work. These should be discussed and their physical appearance and lack of working ability compared with that of the breeds that are commonly used to work. Each breed should be discussed relative to the actual work commonly required of it; the relative age of maturity & longevity in work should be compared and contrasted. Outcome 3 The importance of the examination of both parents prior to the selection of a dog should be emphasised. This should include freedom from hereditary defects and their breeding lines being acceptable. Outcome 4 Emphasis should be placed on the establishment of a dog and handler as a team by the creation of a partnership bond. Inclusion of recognised training methods in establishing the animal/handler bond requires an explanation of canine hierarchy between dog and handler and between dog and other animals in the kennel. The development of the “team” once hierarchical structures are in place should stress the value of feeding, handling, grooming, practical exercises and training. GUIDANCE ON LEARNING AND TEACHING APPROACHES FOR THIS UNIT Wherever possible practical demonstrations should be used. Sheepdog Handling: Introduction (Intermediate 2) 5 National Unit Specification: support notes UNIT Sheepdog Handling: Introduction (Intermediate 2) GUIDANCE ON APPROACHES TO ASSESSMENT FOR THIS UNIT Outcome 1 Short answer restricted response questions would be appropriate for all PC’s. Outcome 2 Breeds could be identified using a matching exercise that could also encompass the physical characteristics and the purpose of the breed. Outcome 3 A written exercise covering three scenarios, to include hill sheep, in-bye sheep and cattle (either hill or dairy). Outcome 4 A practical exercise in the form of a diary may be appropriate in some circumstances. Simulation could also be used. SPECIAL NEEDS This unit specification is intended to ensure that there are no artificial barriers to learning or assessment. Special needs of individual candidates should be taken into account when planning learning experiences, selecting assessment instruments or considering special alternative outcomes for units. For information on these, please refer to the SQA document Guidance on Special Assessment and Certification Arrangements for Candidates with Special Needs/Candidates whose First Language is not English (SQA, 1998).

    British Veterinary Association / Kennel Club Hip Dysplasia Scheme Breed Specific Statistics – 1 January 2001 to 31 December 2016 Hip scores should be considered along with other criteria as part of a responsible breeding programme, and it is recommended that breeders choose breeding stock with hip scores around and ideally below the breed median score, depending on the level of HD in the breed. HD status of parents, siblings and progeny for Kennel Club registered dogs should also be considered, and these together with a three generation Health Test Pedigree may be downloaded via the Health Test Results Finder, available on the Kennel Club’s online health tool Mate Select (www.mateselect.org.uk). In addition, estimated breeding values (EBVs) are available for breeds in which a significant number of dogs have been graded, via the same link. For further advice on the interpretation and use of hip scores see www.bva.co.uk/chs The breed median score is the score of the ‘average’ dog in that breed (i.e. an equal number of dogs in that breed have better and worse scores).

  • Hip Dysplasia Scheme Breed Specific Statistics 2019
    Hip Dysplasia Scheme Breed Specific Statistics 2019 The below table outlines the median hip score for each breed screened under the CHS Hip Dysplasia Scheme. The breed median score is the ‘middle’ score for all dogs’ in that breed (i.e. an equal number of dogs in that breed have scored higher or lower than the median score). Hip scores should be considered along with other criteria as part of responsible breeding programme. It is recommended that breeders choose breeding stock with hips scores around, and ideally below, the 5-year breed median score. By representing dogs scored in the last 15 years, a more accurate reflection of each breed’s current state of health and improvement is given. The 5-year median here refers to dogs scored between 1st January 2015 and 31st December 2019. Hip dysplasia status of the parents, siblings and progeny for Kennel Club registered dogs should also be considered, and these together with a three generation Health Test Pedigree may be downloaded via the Health Test Results Finder, available on the Kennel Club's online health tool Mate Select. In addition, estimated breeding values (EBVs) are available for breeds in which a significant number of breeds have been scored, via the same link.
