                PDP1= Pyruvat-Dehydrogenase-Phosphatase- 
                  Deficiency (exercise intolerance and post-exercised collapse) 
                  
                  EIC= Exercise Induced Collapse (muscle weakness, lack of coordination 
                  and life-threatening collapse after intense exercise)
                  PRA=Die progressive Retinaatrophie (cells deteriorate over time, 
                  eventually leading to blindness)
                These diseases are 
                  inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, i.e. dogs only 
                  can get sick if both...... the maternal and paternal 
                  PDP1 / EIC / PRA gene have this genetic mutation.
                It means, these diseases can be easily excluded by selecting the right pairing.. 
                 There are 3 results 
                  of a test, e.g.:
                  Genotyp N/N = frei /clear/normal
                  Genotyp N/E = Träger / carrier (Genträger - dog 
                  itself will never get sick with this disease)
                  Genotpy E/E = erkrankt/affected
                  
                  When breeding, it is therefore important to ensure that either 
                  clear x clear, clear x carrier (or clear x affected) is mated. 
                  
                  This ensures that no puppy can get sick with these diseases..
                It is therefore very important for the breeder to know the genotypes, 
				through laboratory tests or derived from inheritance. Therefore, the laboratory test results are registered with the 
				breeding clubs and passed on with an entry in the pedigree or - as shown below - when registering with a certificate, 
				so the status is also known for "export dogs".. 
                  
                
                    
 
                       
 
                  
                You 
                  would like to inform you about the health test results of the 
                  ancestors of the puppy of your choice? ... ..and you should, 
                  too!
                If 
                  the ancestors are from abroad, you possibly may find it in the 
                  databases of the Kennelclubs.
                All 
                  you need is the full name of the dog, kennel name or studbook 
                  number. And with just a few clicks, you can also get access 
                  to the results of the health tests of its parents, siblings 
                  and their offspring. Very helpful to get an idea about the health 
                  status in the line, about diseases that are more common ..... 
                  about a possible family disposition for certain diseases and 
                  of course also IF? and WHICH? Tests were ever made. Because 
                  not in all breeding clubs all breed specific health tests are 
                  also obligatory .... resp. there are exceptions to this duty.
                Here 
                  you can find the databases:
