is it not possible to make this DNA test whit (just) 200 dogs ???


Can you ask if we really need 500 dogs and if it is possible to do the ED DNA test at the same time ???

Very best regards / Mikael
Becase different of Dwarfism, HD is poligenic and its the main problem, in easy words, when you need only one carrier of Dwarfism for validade the test, for a poligenic illness you will need a lot of, for mark all responsible genes for the illness and so, turn the test possible.
I will not be surprised if with 500 they will need more dogs.
Make a test for ED can be even more complicate, I wonder if it already exist.

Commonly, when you officialize the results the X-rays stay with the fondation/college, as not all people ask for a X ray copy or ever make photos of it, I don't think it will be possible.
