 Health registries serve multiple roles, all of which are designed to protect and promote the health of companion animals.

 Genetic health registries compile health data provided by owners or veterinarians and have the greatest utility with broad participation.

 Veterinarians should encourage current and future owners of all companion animals to do health screenings and submit all relevant results to health registries.

 Veterinarians and owners should explore the information in health registries and use that knowledge in selecting pets to promote overall pet health.

 Health registries form the backbone of research, which enables the development of genetic tests to reduce disease.
