Hello,

As Roxy appears to be a Basenji cross, is it worth me having her tested for Fanconi Syndrome?

If not, great. If so, how do I go about it?

Do excuse my ignorance, please!

Thanks.

That is a huge relief about the cheek swab…She absolutely HATED having her blood drawn and has been mistrustful of the vet and vet techs ever since. I didn't not realize that there were many errors in the original test.

I stopped frequenting this forum shortly after I had her test done and haven't really heard anything from the basenji world until I got the e-mail. I will definitely get this re-test done as soon as possible and will pick up some strips tomorrow so I can start testing her urine. Thankfully she has not been showing any signs of poor health and has always done well on checkups.

@tanza:

Then you are fine…. worst would be a Carrier... no worries....

That's why I chose Katie. After much research into breeders in my area I was very impressed with the bloodlines she produces, and happy with how she has bred to clear any possibility of Fanconi from her bloodline.

ALways good to wait longer to get a pup and know you chose the right breeder. 😃

@etzbseder:

Thanks, I've seen that before, but forgot about it.

After looking at that, it shows that my answer would be:
Clear pups ONLY means that neither parent is affected, and that does not change with multiple clear pups. The only thing that shows any determination of the parents is a test of the parent themselves (or if their grandparents are clear).

correct. The more clear pups (with no affecteds or carriers) you had from the breeding of the same two animals, the more LIKELY it is that the parents are clear…but it certainly would not be a for sure.
