Having just spent around $600 dollars on DNA disease testing for my dogs (DM 
and RCND) you can imagine that one of the first things I will want to know 
when looking for a stud dog is, what testing has been done and what were the 
results.  It would be nice if we had a list, like the one with dogs that do 
not produce coats and those who carry the black factor, that gave the DNA 
test results for some of these diseases.  I am well aware of the fact that 
these tests are not all conclusive.  They are merly tools to use in making 
choices, much likeOFA. Some say breeding is a crap shoot.  If so, lets at 
least make it an educated crap shoot.
