@ChaseandZahrasmom:
I am so glad that you said that Pat I was a little worried when my vet, whom I have a lot of trust in was the one who had no idea what Fanconi was.
I am definelty going to take this information to them tonight when I pick Zahra up, she is there for a teeth cleaning right now.
Do you think she is too young to be tested? She is 1 Year 9 months.
She is not too young to be tested, but like Lisa said, unless you get the sample in by December 20th, you will have to wait till after February as they are going to concentrate on the Direct linkage test. And there is no reason that you can't wait at this point.. the linkage test was mainly for breeders this past breeding season. For you, I would say wait till after Bebruary and see if we get the direct test…. But you should at age two strip test until you do get the DNA test done
In order to do the DNA test you need to register/add your B to the CPP data base and print out the form for the test that tells your Vet how much blood and how/where to send.
All that information is at www.basenjihealth.org
