Neurologists minutes from London meeting

The researchers and neurologists who attended the London SM Conference in November sponsored by the UK CKCS Club (see earlier posts) have issued a statement that summarises their closed session round table discussion and includes two documents that were agreed upon for general use and recommendation at the discussion: revised breeding guidelines for cavalier breeders and a revised pain scoring system for assessing cavaliers with SM.

The key aspect of the breeding guidelines that has altered is the removal of the former catagories A* and B for grading cavaliers. Reasons for doing this are noted in the minutes.

The minutes and the documents are all available as downloadable documents at the CKCS SM Infosite in the "Research" section, subsection "London 11/06" then "Minutes".
