Pituitary Dwarfism test for CsW is available!

jmvdwiel · 10-05-2009, 22:29

on the dutch forum there is a topic called
Uitslagen DNA test hypofysaire dwerggroei = Results from the DNA test

in this topic there wil be only names of the tested dogs with the results

VRIJ = Free of the mutation
Drager = Carier of the mutation

So everybody can check that topic to see and find out the results from the tested dogs.

SO THAT TOPIC IS NO PLACE FOR DISCUSSIONS!!

I just got DNA-results from University of Utrecht and both Uno and Xtreme are free of the mutated gene that causes Pituitary Dwarfism

Congratulations to everybody whit good results

How many dogs has been tested this far and can one say anything yet about how common the Dwarf gene is on the CsV breed ???

Or will there be a statistic report about the Dwarf gene, when enough data is collected ???

Very best regards / Mikael

Thanks Rolf!

The test results of your dogs will be visible at the Wolfdog health site at the end of this week

Beside your dogs were also 11 in Holland registered CsW’s tested. This owners did use the blood sample form of the Dutch CsW club.
And on this form is that the results will be send to the secretariat of the club for publishing.
So I did wait a while for these results of the club, but till today I did not receive anything

I also did hear of the university that several people did not agree with publishing the info of the test results!

So the info was only send to the owners.

So the tests of these owners are worthless for the CsW breed!!

It is very, very sad and stupid, that there are owners who are making (expensive tests) and keep the results secret.

I hope in future the dwarfism test will be accepted and obligated by kennel organisations. So the results of this test will come, just like HD results, on the pedigree of offspring!

I saw the "actualization" at the nederland forum that we have already 30 dgs tested with the results published.
The results are very interessing for the breeders and I'm sure some people want to test his dogs for this, but the main problem seems to be... the price is too high for some people.
So I was wondering about, if we get one ammount of owners (upper than the actual number of tested dogs) willing to make this test in his dogs, would have the possibility of the university turn the price of the test lower?
