Advertising Requirements:
One of the primary goals of the Maremma Sheepdog Club of America is education. Additionally, we believe the protection and betterment of the Maremma breed through the use of health testing should be promoted.

Potential puppy buyers want their new Maremma Sheepdog puppy to have the best possible chance for a long and healthy life. The risks for heritable diseases can be greatly reduced through careful breeding practices, beginning with health screening examinations before breeding.

Every breed is subject to hereditary diseases, and the Maremma Sheepdog is no exception. Failure to screen for heritable diseases before breeding could result in taking unnecessary risks for passing on genetic disease. Risk can never be zero, but health testing offers the best possible chance that the puppy will not develop these genetic diseases.

The MSCA encourages all Maremma Sheepdog breeders to have dogs screened for hip dysplasia before breeding.
Hip dysplasia is the abnormal formation of the “ball-and-socket” hip joint and occurs in many breeds. It is primarily inherited, and development is believed to be influenced by multiple genes. The risk and severity of hip dysplasia may also be increased by environmental factors.

The radiographic appearance of the hips does not always correlate with clinical symptoms, and many dysplastic dogs show no outward signs until middle or older age when secondary arthritis may cause increasing discomfort.
Dogs must be 24 months of age or older to receive final hip certification through the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA), or 4 months of age or older for a PennHIP diagnostic evaluation.
​
Starting October 1, 2018, all litters or puppies advertised on the “Members Ads” page must be out of dogs who have received permanent hip certification through OFA or PennHIP.  Un-altered dogs over 24 months of age are required to have hip certification. Dogs who have been altered may still be advertised.
