“Peaches is a Mobility Service Dog. She was rescued after her owners died of Covid and underwent training to become a service dog. She is very attentive and gets along with well with our other pets. A true lover. We are testing to see if she has a genetic predisposition to anesthesia issues prior to spaying.”

Health Summary
Peaches inherited one variant that you should learn more about.
Bald Thigh Syndrome
What does this result mean?
This variant should not impact Peaches’s health. This variant is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that a dog needs two copies of the variant to show signs of this condition. Peaches is unlikely to develop this condition due to this variant because she only has one copy of the variant.
Impact on Breeding
Your dog carries this variant and will pass it on to ~50% of her offspring. You can email breeders@embarkvet.com to discuss with a genetic counselor how the genotype results should be applied to a breeding program.
What is Bald Thigh Syndrome?
A cosmetic condition common to sighthounds characterized by hair loss on the thighs. It is caused by a structural abnormality of the hair follicle.

What is a linkage test?
DNA sequences that are close together on a chromosome tend to be inherited together. Because of this, we can use genetic variation surrounding a specific variant (i.e. "linked" to it) to infer the presence or absence of a variant that is associated with a health condition or trait.
Linkage tests are not as predictive of your dog’s true genotype as direct assays, which we use on most other genetic conditions we test for.
