New DNA test: LPN2 in the Leonberger We are happy to introduce this new DNA test that is specific to the Leonberger. This DNA test will complete our panel of genetic disease in the Leonberger breed with the LEMP and LPN1 DNA tests. LPN2 is a polyneuropathy disease. Around 5% of dogs are carried and […]
LEMP Leukoencephalomyelopathy in the Leonberger LEMP is a neurodegenerative disease that affects the Leonberger breed. This pathology is due to the gradual destruction of the myelin sheath that surrounds the nerve cells. The symptoms observed are difficulty in moving, movement disorders. At an advanced stage, dogs may be unable to stand up. We are happy […]
