Just ordered my kits to test Fern (FTAW Creechdale Phoebe of Amberquest) for AMS, FN and PRA. So simple to do. It has cost me £145 to test for all three conditions, which isn't a lot in the grand scheme of things.

Yeah that's who I'm using Andy, 100 euros for both tests which works out about £89 once you've ordered the sample swabs?

Then its about £55 for antagene?

I think I paid £48 for AMS and £82 for FN and PRA but it fluctuates with exchange rate

Aye that doesn't bother me too much mate. It's more about knowing that they're clear for me and anything I produce is clear. Do they accept Laboklin FN? I know they require optigen for PRA.

Had my results back yesterday so she's now clear for AMS, FN and PRA :-)

Looking at the cocker spaniel database, there are now 20 dogs who are either affected or carriers.

160 are confirmed as being clear

The KC only have the agreement to publish PRA results to MyKC from Optigen tested dogs. For all other DNA tests (for cockers at least) you can use who you like and they will publish the results.
