| | Alpha | Vetgen results Well, eventhough I had two Elisa Assay tests done on Bumpy and I thought my vet did the Vetgen, I then saw no indication of that on his records, so I went ahead and did the swab test myself. As expected, the results came back as affected. When I told his breeder she yelled at me, said none of her dogs were carriers or affected and hung up. Kind of what I expected, both with the breeder and with my Bumps as he has had bleeding issues already. I guess I just needed to see it in writing. |

| That really stinks of your breeder. You gave her pretty vital information that could help her in the long run and future litters. I'm sorry about the results. Has he been neutered already? What where his issues previously? |

| Well at least you know now. My breeder bred two carriers and we knew that upfront but she did not do the Vet Gen testing in advance of the sale. There were two affected, two carriers, and one clear... Drago is the clear!!

Lana - At least you know now. That really sucks about the breeder, but hey.....you did the right thing by at least trying to let her know. She obviously is a moron, but that isnt your fault. Hopefully bumpy will live a long normal life.

| It is good to know what you are dealing with 100% - the breeder is a butthead!
I too hope that he lives a long and uneventful life.

You have learned so much from this board when you could have gotten mad, told us to drop dead and gone elsewhere as a some people do.
I am sorry about Bumpys' condition, but I know you will take the best of care of him.
You really need to tell everyone you can about his condition and WHERE you got him. |
