100% Clear of all major inherited diseases tested, including,
Degenerative Myelopathy (DM)
Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA)
Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL1 and NCL2)
Sanfillipo Syndrome (MPS IIIA)
Osteogenesis Imperfecta (Brittle Bone Disease)
Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy
Genetic Diversity
Coeffiecent of Inbreeding (COI): 15%, a moderate level, indicating balanced genetic diversity
MHC Diversity (Immune System Diversity): Low diversity at DRB1 and high diversity at DQA1/DQB1, supporting a healthy immune system
Physical & Coat Traits
Color & Pattern: Twinkie carries genetics for a classic black & tan coat pattern, no heavy white spotting, and a single copy of the merle (dapple) gene.
Coat Type: She is genetically predisposed to have a long, straight coat with light shedding and no furnishings (no beard and bushy eyebrows)
Body Features:
Short legs due to chondrodysplasia (a hallmark of the Dachshund breed)
Normal-length tail
Medium to long muzzle
Smaller body size, consistent with Miniature Dachshund standards
Temperament and Performance Traits:
Normal food motivation
Normal altitude tolerance
