Beegin's Fanconi Test Results


  • I got Beegin's Fanconi test results back today. I had been worried because I had read that the WL line had a lot of Fanconi in it and Beegin's sire is WL's Alex.

    But I got GREAT NEWS today when I opened the envelope. Beegin's tested probably clear/normal for fanconi. Just for others who might have any bs from the cross of (sire) WL's Alex and (dam) Jammin'Jo (I can post their DNA numbers if anyone wants them). OFA number is BJ-FAC2411/14M-PI

    I wanted to thank everyone on this forum for helping me learn so much about this disorder and finally getting the guts to get Beegin tested. I was quite worried but I guess my Mr. B got lucky.:D


  • That is great news for you and Beegin!

    It is important to keep in mind though for others that may have related dogs that two carriers bred together can produce any combination of results Clear, Carrier, Affected or even Indeterminate so if the parents are untested then you really need to test in order to know.


  • Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Wonderful.
    So now that will not be a worry to you.


  • That is wonderful news for you….but lvoss is right however... two carriers can produce carriers, clear, affected and Indeterminate ... so it is important to test....

    And it is important to pass the word on just how important testing is "before" breeding so that we can rid our breed of this horrible affliction...


  • great news!


  • Great news, what a relief, but tanza is right, out of my litter of four I had 3 carriers and one clear, their mum came back clear (thank god because we knew the sire would come back carrier as he had produced an affected) and her brother and sister are carriers.

    We all need to test.


  • Great news!!!!!!!

    Congrats on the VERY GOOD results!!


  • Congratulations on the great news!


  • Great news:D
    I'm waiting on Belle's results coming back she was from a clear/carrier mating so praying she is a clear, as we don't have many clear dogs here in the UK that I would want ot use.


  • Congrats!! :)

    :DI am so happy for your good results!!! I haven't gotten the courage up yet to have Bella tested…:( BTW, Bella has the same parents! What is your boy's birth date... maybe they are siblings?!?!?;)


  • Great news for Beegin! :)

    @moetmum: I understood that one of the main reasons dogs come back IND is because there isn't enough DNA to test. I don't think that is correct? This is from the FAQ's at www.basenjihealth.org on Fanconi Testing. I still think you should contact Jon Curby, if you have not already My dog came back indeterminate, what does that mean? Should I re-test? Answer: Our linkage test uses 3 markers (for a total of 6 alleles) to predict Fanconi status and requires that all 3 be in agreement. An indeterminate result means the 3 markers are not in agreement (view sample results) and therefore cannot predict Fanconi status.

    It is coming back through your e-mail, as long as you are the one who registered your dog with the CPP site. For me the blood left europe june 23rd and I was surprised I got the results so soon, when I open my e-mails I thought the CPP was just telling me they got the blood in, then I think I almost fell out of my chair as the 1st result I saw was an affected, in the process I missed one and was two frightned to open the last one, the clear one was the last one, gave me a bit of rest to go back and notice that probably carrier was not a bad result. The thing is I didn't expected Thorn to be an affected, Eos I was a bit worried as well as for her and Thorns kids, Timbo and Vahli, a few people are saying her father died of fanconi. But I don't feel I am alone in this and I am sure of something, it is the last time I will ever get worried about getting a probably affected puppy, thanks to the test and people who made it happen.

    Great news.. I had Kobey's blood done at the Nationals and I know that it arrived and they cashed my check… so just waiting for the results... He will be either Clear or Carrier, since his sire is Clear, Dam is a Carrier.... His two litter sisters did come back Clear.....

    Glad that you pointed that out and yes, sometimes UTI's are really hard to catch… so you are right, learning the symptoms for your dog is the key....
