My girl has a probably clear test by OFA. I am taking her to the vet in a couple days because she is loosing weight and her coat is poor. she is not excessively thirsty or acting like she is sick. Can the genetic test be wrong? Has any one heard of this? Any thoughts. thank you
Did you receive a pedigree?
Before the definitive Fanconi DNA test, I was testing my rescues for glucose in the urine at 2 years of age. I have not yet retested my dogs with the updated DNA test so they are still being tested for glucose in the urine.

The more data that is in the data base, the better people can use the that information as this is a Linkage test only… and errors can be made either human or test....
And chances are that your vet will tell you that there is no test.
Just because it has been available for nearly two years does not mean that they know it is now here.
You can do the fanconi tests without seeing a vet at all. Finger's crossed both your Bs come back NOT affected.
