    What health-test do you do?

    I'm a bit interested in what test you all do?

    I believe it differs a lot between countries, and that some are testing really well and in some countries people seems not even aware of the problems?

    In Sweden almost all breeders are follow the health-program and do test for HD before breeding at one year and then HCM first before breeding at about 1 year of age and then at 2 years, 3 years and 5 years. And then of course we DNA test for MyBpc3.

    I have noticed that a lot of breeders in Europe is testing for PL that often is seen togehter with HD, and FiV/FelV something which in Sweden is really uncommon and therefore we do not test for this. And some are testing for PKD and/or SMA also.

    It seems to differ a lot.

    Me myself is supporting the health-program and are testing for HD and HCM
