Health Screening Summary
Angel has tested Normal (Clear) for all 11 genetic mutations. This means she is not at an increased risk for these diseases and will pass only normal genes to her puppies for these specific conditions.
- Chondrodystrophy (CDDY) with IVDD Risk
- Collie Eye Anomaly
- Degenerative Myelopathy
- Hereditary Ataxia (Australian Shepherd Type)
- Hereditary Cataracts (Australian Shepherd Type)
- Hyperuricosuria
- Intestinal Cobalamin Malabsorption
- Multidrug Resistance 1 (MDR1)
- Multifocal Retinopathy 1
- Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRCD)
Coat Color & Trait Genetics
- Merle (M Locus): Genotype m/M267. Angel carries one copy of the merle allele.
- White Spotting (S Locus): Genotype S/sP (Carrier). This results in limited white spotting, often referred to as "flash" or "parti".
- Dominant Black (K Locus): Genotype KB/ky (Carrier). This prevents agouti expression, allowing for solid black pigment in her pigmented areas.
- Dilute (D Locus): Genotype D/D (Non-dilute). She does not carry the mutation for coat color dilution.
- Leg Length (CDPA): Genotype cd/cd. She does not carry the mutation for leg shortening associated with chondrodysplasia.
