AMS in cockers.
Re: AMS in cockers.
4 more tested AMS carriers, these won't be found on the cocker data base until all concerned have been notified.
Re: AMS in cockers.
Really sorry to hear that, lets hope they publish.
In life, it is important to know when to stop arguing with people and simply let them be wrong.

Re: AMS in cockers.
The database got a pedigree analysis function to compare pedigrees and search for the first common ancestors to, for example, trace genetic defects. Works if you are logged in, getting a log in is free.

Re: AMS in cockers.
Does a vet have to be involved? I ask as it will probably double the cost of the test for meTeddy wrote:Please have your dogs tested for AMS, it doesn't cost much and is done with a buccal swab at your vets so no blood needs to be drawn. http://www.antagene.com/en
Re: AMS in cockers.
A Buccal swab can be done by anyone, its just a cheek swab, not invasive although a Cocker might think it so!

Yes a vet has to do the swab test, check the microchip, stamp and sign the paperwork. My vet only charges about £10.Amberquest wrote:Does a vet have to be involved?

Re: AMS in cockers.
Thanks.
Just an aside, I have just been on the antagene site and it looks like they do 3 tests for 128 euro. Does anyone know if that means to can get FN, PRA and AMS done for that?
