DM Test Results for Rhodesian Ridgeback

March 4 2009 Hats off to the RR Club for the unprecedented number of dogs tested for DM. We are well on our way to eliminating this disease from our breed in dogs bred by club members. 609 dogs tested and the numbers continue to grow as new results are posted weekly by OFA. These results give the breeder the information they need when considering a breeding. Dogs at risk should NOT be bred and eliminated from a breeding program. More questions? leave a comment to this post. You can follow the link above to see what other breeds are doing. K
