Last week I did receive the DM test results of Paco and Atlasz and both owners did give permission to publish the results.
Also these 2 males are Carriers.
So on this moment these official DM test results are known:
- Justine Stella Atoi de Louba Tar - Affected
- Male X - Affected (the owner does not want to publish the name of the dog yet)
- Male X - Carrier (the owner does not want to publish the name of the dog yet)
- Hogan Sky van Hagia Sophia - Carrier
- Chunami from Bandit's World - Carrier
- Phylax Paco van de Ursidae-Stee - Carrier
- Atlasz Cannus Lupus - Carrier
Also several other CsW's were tested, and the owners wait for the results.
This list with test results is not any reason for "panic"!
But it is clear that DM exists in CsW breed in several lines and countries.
That is why it is useful to test more CsW's for DM!
And again: not any dog needs to be excluded for breeding!
On lecture last weekend about DM of Dr. Paul Mandigers (neurologic specialist) was also mentioned that it would be a disaster for a breed when DM carriers would be excluded for breeding.
