Testing for Diseases

KNOWING IS EVERYTHING

With the advances of DNA testing in animals there are now ways to know if your dog may be susceptible to an inherited disease.
Wouldn't you want to know in order to be prepared?

HOWEVER there are more diseases now showing up in the breed,
such as IVDD (www.boykinivdd.com/)
and a more complete panel of tests will include those added diseases.

 The Boykin Spaniel Society has a recommended slate of recommended DNA Tests.

Some of these test costs of a BSS REGISTERED boykin can be reimbursed by the Boykin Spaniel Foundation

The Boykin Spaniel Club and Breeders Association also has a set of recommended panel of tests.
They also have suggestions for additional tests including the IVDD (CDDY) test.

We highly recommend purchasing your Pet Insurance BEFORE submitting DNA testing as there is a possibility that anything found on the test could be excluded in your policy as 'pre-existing". Read the FINE PRINT on the insurance application!
