USA Purebred Labs DNA Testing is A Game Changer for Labrador Retrievers!

DNA Testing: A Commitment to Health

At USA Purebred Labs, we prioritize the health and well-being of our Labrador Retrievers. To ensure the highest quality puppies, we invest in comprehensive genetic testing.

Why Genetic Testing Matters:

• Early Detection: Genetic testing allows us to identify potential health issues early on, enabling us to make informed breeding decisions.
• Selective Breeding: By selecting breeding pairs with favorable genetic profiles, we can reduce the risk of hereditary diseases.
• Healthy Puppies: Genetic testing helps us produce healthier, longer-living puppies.

Our Testing Process:

We rigorously test our breeding dogs for a wide range of genetic diseases, including:

• EIC (Exercise-Induced Collapse)
• PRCD (Progressive Retinal Atrophy)
• RD/OSD (Retinal Dysplasia/Oculoskeletal Dysplasia)
• CNM (Centronuclear Myopathy)
• CYN (Cystinuria)
• HNPK (Hereditary Nasal Parakeratosis)
• NARC (Narcolepsy)
• DM (Degenerative Myelopathy)
• PK (Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency)
• MTM1 (Myotubular Myopathy)
• HUU (Hyperuricosuria)
• Elliptocytosis

Beyond Genetic Testing:

In addition to genetic testing, we also conduct thorough orthopedic evaluations, including hip and elbow X-rays, to identify any potential joint issues.

By investing in these rigorous testing procedures, we can ensure that our puppies are healthy, happy, and ready to thrive.
