Not "veryfied" test results will be NOT SHOWED.
Very interesting thread indeed
Will the DM test results obtained at Daniela's laboratory be treated as varified, or unverified?

Some Polish owners plan to have the samples taken officialy by vets after the chip/tatoo of the dog is checked, and sent to Prague through recognized local vet clinics, just to avoid accussations of cheating.

Personally I don't care if the result od my dog is published or not, but I know some owners/breeders would like to know if they will have to repeat the test if the result is to be published on WD.

You mean the free of charge project of the Czech Club? If yes than "yes": the results will be also put into the database.
We (as web site) do not "verify" the tests - all test result made by laboratories testing DNA by dogs will be published. But additionally we will also list information who made the test (in this case it will be Czech University).

For all genetic tests performed through the OFFA in the US (with the exception of the 15 free tests given by the University of Missouri, and maybe initial sample tests in the future by universities), all normal results are automatically published in an open public database, in an effort to help breeders locate dogs which might be used to correct some of their dog's breeding faults (DM is considered a fault to be considered like other faults that can be corrected through breeding - carrier = fault, affected = stronger fault - http://www.offa.org/dnatesting/dmbreederguide.html). For dogs with N/N (clear) parents, no testing is necessary for puppies, they are considered "clear by parentage" (http://www.offa.org/dna_cbp.html )

I'd love to see Penn-Hip results listed in the database eventually, as this is becoming an ever popular test in the US for hips - when we have 20 CSVs tested, we will have a control sample to make official breeding recommendations from, for the breed. Penn - does not have an online database.

Owners of dogs with abnormal results are given the option to publish their dogs, or not. As a club, I think we will push to have transparency and openness in declaring results to further research, and strengthen our breeding program in the US.

http://offa.org/results.html?num=&re...t=Begin+Search

For the case of all results, the age at test (in months), as well as the date of the test (particularly important for eye exams) is listed next to the result. Maybe this is a solution to address problems of tests with expiration dates? It would also be necessary to have a written passage explaining how to interpret results for new owners/breeders, I think.

Excited for the new database!

I see that they are declared as "clear" only if "all three (sire/dam/offspring) have been DNA identity profiled and parentage verified."
We can also make such rule for Wolfdog.org database - even if till now there are no dogs which fulfill such conditions.

BTW. I forgot to write that DNA tests (for example antagene) will be also included in the new database.

And what about "only DNA profil" of dog? It will be more and more important, if some "breeders" mix wolfdogs or make falses in pedigries .....
When will be new database ready?

Yes, it's wonderful they require this (even though it only means the owner performing a cheek swab for AKC at home). It's also a necessary condition to breed imported (FCI registered) dogs, or AI litters.

Yes, I meant the Czech University tests/results.
Thanks

Will the heart check indicate also which method? (Echocardiogram (EKG)? Holter? etc)

Excited about the new database!
