Fanconi testing results

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • My dog's blood tests came back probably clear and probably carrier. Do I need to continue to do the Diastix testing?

  • @Kebasmom:

    My dog's blood tests came back probably clear and probably carrier. Do I need to continue to do the Diastix testing?

    So you have one of each? And no, you do not have to continue with the Diastix testing, only if they came back as Affected….

    Good for you and your "kids"...... yea!!!!!!!!!!!!! no worries about Fanconi

  • Congrats for the results!!! :)

  • My boy came back with the probably clear reading and my girl came back with the probably carrier reading. Well that's good news that I don't have to be the pee catcher anymore…... :)

  • Again that is great that you don't have to worry about Fanconi and that super

    … but only goes to show that it is so important to test.... I (sorry) don't remember where you got your Basenjis... but I am guessing the sire and dam's were not tested... so the Sire and Dam of your girl, one will be a carrier at best and one clear, or both can be carrier, or one could be affected and one carrier. Hopefully you will let the breeder know that they need to test before breeding again... as there is every chance that they could be producing affecteds.
    Even your boy could have a carrier parent... and be clear or worse both parents could be carriers and have a clear...

    Or you could have bred your girl to a carrier and produced affecteds....

  • Fantastic! Thats great news. happy dance

  • Congratulations on your good news :)

    I know that quality breeders will keep the lines as strong as possible while making sure the pups are not affected. Really, that is all anyone can ask.

    @LiveWWSD: Yea, she has quite a bit of African in her Dam's bloodline. Her mother and most of her siblings all test indetermint. I was totally prepaired for the indetermint result, as that seems to be the standard test result for alot of her breeders bloodline. To date none of the Avongara Dogs have had Fanconi and only when crossed with American (include really worldwide Basenjis) has Fanconi cropped up. However there has been ISPID, hips, eye problems with the Avongara imports. Remember that in Africa, there is nature selective breeding for the most part and also remember that you need the gene from both side for Fanconi as it is recessive. If nature selection, could be that if affected they would have died before reproducing.
