PBGV HEALTH SURVEY

PBGVCA Health Committee

It's That Time of Year Again

& 

It's Kick-Off Time for PBGV Health!

 

The Mission of the PBGVCA Health Committee is "to have the most current information readily available for providing 

optimal health care and for making wise choices in managing breed-specific health care issues."  To obtain the most 

current, and future, health status of our PBGV's, the Health Committee is kicking off the Club's newest initiative. The 

purpose is to identify current major health problems in the breed with the goal of shaping medical research priorities 

for the betterment of our PBGV's.  This ongoing initiative will collect clinical health information on all PBGV's during their 

life span. 

 

We need help from ALL PBGV owners and breeders!  

The process is simple.

 

• Have basic dog info readily available such as call name, date of birth, etc. 

• Based on veterinarian’s diagnosis, you will answer a few questions.

• The form collects ONE major health issue at a time.  Have more than one health issue…you will be able to return to 

a new form after completing the first. 

• Ready, set, GO https://pbgv.org/lime/index.php/281313?lang=en  

Would you rather complete downloadable form and either mail or email GO www.pbgv.org and select under PBGVCA 

News “NEW! PBGVCA Clinical Health Information Initiative...”  

You can also fill out the following page - FRONT and BACK and send to: 

If you need to fill out more than one form for multiple dogs or for multiple health issues for a single dog, don’t forget to 

make copies first.

Thank you for your support,

PBGVCA Health Committee
