Moodle Puppies By Paris

Moodle Puppies By Paris conducts 8 additional tests available for the Moodle.

Degenerative Myelopathy (DM)

Genetic Test

This is a disease affecting the spinal cord of older dogs, initially causing wobbliness and eventually hindlimb paralysis. It can affect a wide range of breeds. There is now a DNA test that can indicated if a breeding dog is carrying this disease.

GM2

Genetic Test

GM2 gangliosidosis is a lysosomal storage disorder that causes neurological problems. There are a few different types of this disease affecting different breeds. There is a DNA test available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying this condition.

GSD IA

Genetic Test

Glycogen Storage Disease Type I-A is a disease that can cause dangerously low blood glucose levels and result in collapse. Affected puppies often fail to grow normally and have a short life expectancy. There is a DNA test available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying this condition.

MPS

Genetic Test

Mucopolysaccharidosis is a genetic lysosomal storage disease that can cause various problems including stunted growth and bone deformities. There are a few different variants of this disease that have been identified in different breeds. For many breeds there are DNA tests available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying the condition.

Osteochondrodysplasia

Genetic Test

Osteochondrodysplasias are a group of rare genetic diseases that cause problems with connective tissue, cartilage, or bone development. They commonly cause dwarfism and movement disorders. There is a DNA test available in some breeds to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.

PK Deficiency

Genetic Test

Prekallikrein (PK) deficiency is a rare inherited clotting disorder mainly affecting Shih Tzus and similar breeds. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.

PRA

Genetic Test

Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) in dogs is a type of genetic eye disease causing deterioration of the retina and eventually, blindness. There are a variety of sub-types of PRA, which can occur in various breeds. There are various DNA tests available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.

VWD-1

Genetic Test

Von Willebrand’s Disease (VWD/vWD) is a genetic bleeding disorder caused by a lack of a specific clotting factor. There are three forms of the disease, types 1, 2 & 3. A DNA test is available for each type of VWD to identify whether a breeding dog is a carrier or might be affected. The severity of VWD varies widely between breeds and individuals, ranging from life threatening, through to having no impact on clotting ability.
