Genetic Testing and Genetic Counseling in Pet and Breeding Animals
Genetic testing and genetic counseling are not just for breeding animals. They include; testing for the bleeding disorder von Willebrand's disease before performing surgery on susceptible breeds, altering diets for pets that are prone to developing bladder stones or crystals, and switching from rapid growth puppy food to lower calorie foods in young, large breed dogs, so that joint tissues can develop at a more uniform rate.
