Ask for all tests they offer it is quite likely they are a little bit cheaper. It doesn´t matter where the lab is as long as the tests are done properly.

They say they could make any tests, that have demand. If a certain number of interested people is collected, thay are ready to buy the patents needed. It is a pitty, but at the moment it seems like only paternity tests are interesting to dog owners in Lithuania.
If I knew the certain names of tests, interesting to our breeed, I could send them a request.

The patent of the dwarfism test is not sold yet to any lab.
And I hope in future a lab can buy it and offer the test for cheap price!

On this moment some labs in West Europe do offer the same test (for same or higher prices), but they all send the blood samples to the Uni of Utrecht (Holland)

In the mean time I did make an agreement with the university:
When I am able to send at least 30 bloodsamples in one time (with payment before test) they will make the test for € 80 (without tax) for each dog instead of the €100.

I also can offer to come over with a friend of mine who is a vet, to collect the blood for free.
So when you organise an event with more CsW's and you are willing to make a dwarfism test for at least 30 CsW's, just contact me in private about possibillity's! [email protected]
