According to the Breeding Regulations of the Hungária Puli Club, it is not allowed to breed a Puli with defects that would lead to disqualification as listed in the breed standard, as well as with cryptorchidism (hidden testes), monorchidism (one testicle), hip dysplasia, or visible clinical symptoms of knee joint dysplasia, epilepsy, hereditary eye diseases, or hereditary or debilitating diseases that make life impossible. According to the decision of the HPK, a condition for breeding eligibility is the presence of a hip dysplasia screening result issued by FDB or MKOE for dogs over 12 months of age.

For black, mask-faced fako, and gray individuals, based on the reassuring population size and genetic diversity, the screening result must be at least of a mild classification. Since the bloodline diversity and population of the white Puli stock have become very limited and inbred, individuals with a medium classification that do not show clinical symptoms can also be included in breeding.

White Pulik with a severe classification, as well as colored Pulik with a medium or severe classification, must be excluded from breeding.

The medium-rated white dogs that have been evaluated and can be kept for breeding may only be bred with dogs that have a dysplasia-free rating (normal, almost normal, mild).

White – other color pairings can only be requested from the HPK Breeding Council if the dogs are dysplasia-free (normal, almost normal, mild) and have at least a breedable breeding qualification. This permission can be obtained through a majority vote by presenting the breeding pair at the two annual Main Breeding Inspections.

To assist breeders and prospective breeders, we maintain a list of individuals with mandatory and recommended health screenings.
