SLEM test results

Below mentioned dogs were DNA tested for Shaking Puppy Spongiform LeucoEncephaloMyelopathy (SLEM) and found to be clear:

  • Heathberry’s Bite the Bullet (Titus)
  • Heathberry’s Count to Ten (Kampsu-Olga)
  • Heathberry’s Rainmaker (Cota)
  • Heathberry’s Stardust (Jyvä)

CLEAR: these dogs have two normal copies of DNA.  Clear dogs will not develop Shaking Puppy Spongiform LeucoEncephaloMyelopathy (SLEM) as a result of this SLEM mutation, although cannot exclude the possibility they might develop SPS due to other mutations they might carry that are not detected by this test.
