Just recieved Cody's PRA results from Optigen.
Test Results are negative. He is clear of the prcd mutation and is not a carrier.
FYI - Optigen now accepts cheek swabs for dna collection so you do not have to spend the money on the blood draw.

Fantastic news Bruce, Side note to anyone wishing to have their dog tested for PRA...if you call Optigen directly...they will give you a code number that you can use when you order your tests online...it will save you about $50.... |

Wish I had known about the discount Stuw mentioned.
Also - Optigen will allow cheek swabs now but they do not supply the brushes to do it. I had a hard time finding something to use and ultimately my vet gave me an AKC dna test kit and I used those brushes.
Congratulations on Satin! Did you feel she was at risk or were you just doing the test as a precaution? |
