Please Note: AKC DNA testing DOES NOT determine breed of the dog (breed purity), conformation, performance ability, or specific coat color. AKC DNA health and trait tests are for informational purposes only. A normal result does not exclude a different cause of this disease, either from a different genetic variant, or from another cause. Abnormal results are not diagnostic for the disease. If you are concerned your dog may have this disease, please consult your veterinarian. Trait testing provides genotypes for color or trait markers, but does not determine specific color or traits.
