@tuts - Hello tuts, note that the test recommend by OFA comes from the Basenji Club of America as recommended tests and for OFA this will determine if done that Basenji will get a CHIC rating. Note however this does not mean that they were clear, just means that they were tested. Some are test that need to be done yearly. Breed parent clubs for all breeds determine what tests need to be done
Thyroid Testing…

I am/was about to get Saba's and Ochre's Thyroids tested, but, I was reading some documentation, possibly from the Apu site, (??), that it should be done approximately 100 days after their season. As you guys are aware, the southern hemisphere dogs are just coming out of their season, (thank dog !!!), now. Question is, should I wait a few months to get them tested ???
