You have no idea how encouraging it is to hear this. We took our 1 year old in for a dislocated toe…apparently he has lax joints and that toe needed to be amputated, at that time they x-rayed the other paws and the other back one showed up with lytic bone. The vet said this could be infection or cancer and to amputate that as well. We thought that was extreme at the time and didn't do it. Instead we took anticbiotics to clear up the infection...5 months later we are awaiting surgery in 2 days to have it amputated and sent off for histology. He's been on antibiotics for months and the new ones have taken care of the swelling but now his lymph nodes are enlarged and he is obviously sick. We have had every test possible without amputating and no answers as to whats going on...so happy your dog is going to be fine and have hope that our boy will get the same diagnosis.
Beegin's Fanconi Test Results
-
I got Beegin's Fanconi test results back today. I had been worried because I had read that the WL line had a lot of Fanconi in it and Beegin's sire is WL's Alex.
But I got GREAT NEWS today when I opened the envelope. Beegin's tested probably clear/normal for fanconi. Just for others who might have any bs from the cross of (sire) WL's Alex and (dam) Jammin'Jo (I can post their DNA numbers if anyone wants them). OFA number is BJ-FAC2411/14M-PI
I wanted to thank everyone on this forum for helping me learn so much about this disorder and finally getting the guts to get Beegin tested. I was quite worried but I guess my Mr. B got lucky.:D

That is great news for you and Beegin!
It is important to keep in mind though for others that may have related dogs that two carriers bred together can produce any combination of results Clear, Carrier, Affected or even Indeterminate so if the parents are untested then you really need to test in order to know.

Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wonderful.
So now that will not be a worry to you. -
That is wonderful news for you….but lvoss is right however... two carriers can produce carriers, clear, affected and Indeterminate ... so it is important to test....
And it is important to pass the word on just how important testing is "before" breeding so that we can rid our breed of this horrible affliction...

great news!

Great news, what a relief, but tanza is right, out of my litter of four I had 3 carriers and one clear, their mum came back clear (thank god because we knew the sire would come back carrier as he had produced an affected) and her brother and sister are carriers.
We all need to test.

Great news!!!!!!!
Congrats on the VERY GOOD results!!

Congratulations on the great news!

Great news:D
I'm waiting on Belle's results coming back she was from a clear/carrier mating so praying she is a clear, as we don't have many clear dogs here in the UK that I would want ot use. -
Congrats!!

:DI am so happy for your good results!!! I haven't gotten the courage up yet to have Bella tested…:( BTW, Bella has the same parents! What is your boy's birth date... maybe they are siblings?!?!?;)

Great news for Beegin!
