Whilst DNA-based tests identifying disease causing mutation(s) remain the most informative approach, they must be used along with current screening schemes, genomic selection, and pedigree information in the effort to maintain genetic diversity while also significantly reducing the number of inherited disorders. (Farrell et al., 2015, The challenges of pedigree dog health: approaches to combating inherited disease)."
J.Jeffrey Bragg has written an excellent piece in 2009 on "Population genetics in practice: Principles for the breeder" which I recommend you to read with the abstract from PhD Carol Beuchat here.
