As a stud owner, you would be responsible for knowing about this and having your studs tested.

There's an entire litany of tests that should be done prior to breeding, if one cares about the health of the dogs. In addition, it's important to know the health history of the ENTIRE line, not just the particular dogs you intend to breed. Some genetic defects may only show up when you've put two of the wrong dogs together; others are much more prevalent.

Now, if the information you are looking for is how to let it be known that you have a stud available, you won't find that information here because it's a violation of YT rules.
