The univeristy of Holland is on this moment the only place where the dwarfism test can be done.
Also Laboklin is sending DNA of dogs to holland for the dwarfism test.
The Dwarfism test is testing if a dog has the gene mutation for
Pituitary dwarfism.
When you have test a dog and he is Free he will be always Free for this gene mutation!
All the Csw dwarfs that were tested did have the same gene mutation that causes pituitary dwarfism.
But as metionend before : there are sometimes other reasons why a dog is very small. And this has nothing to do with pituitary dwarfism!
It is very strange that Laboklin did send such mails about the dwarfims test.
Because there can always appear new gene mutations in a breed.
And theoretical it is possible that there will appear in future an other gene mutation that causes an other form of a disease.
But that is possible for all the genetic diseases we know now!!
So it is a bit strange to mention this only for pituitary dwarfism!
