Kathy posts: In Europe , there is NO GSD club including the SV , the worlds largest and most powerful club , that just happens to pertain to our breed.. lol, endorse NO DM test because of inaccuracy. The same SV that seemed to think hip dysplasia was a disease of American line dogs? Or that there were no hemophilia issues? It would seem the SV may have a history of not endorsing much in the field of medical testing. ;-) Diane Wright ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2011.
