“Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted CGC TKN

Rottweiler

“He was the runt of the litter, had to be hand-fed, & was kept from dying more than once during those first few days. Sadly, we lost Rookie 5/5/22, after a year-long battle with multiple symptoms. He was diagnosed with IBD, but in spite of gaining back his weight (from 73#), his symptoms became bizarre. In a short time he lost fur on his face, stopped eating, then lost control of his front legs. MSU’s necropsy showed he had sepsis throughout his body. He almost made it to his 6th birthday. 🌈”

Health Summary

“Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted has one variant that you should let your vet know about.

ALT Activity

warn icon

“Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted inherited both copies of the variant we tested

Why is this important to your vet?

“Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted has two copies of a variant in the GPT gene and is likely to have a lower than average baseline ALT activity. ALT is a commonly used measure of liver health on routine veterinary blood chemistry panels. As such, your veterinarian may want to watch for changes in “Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted's ALT activity above their current, healthy, ALT activity. As an increase above “Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted’s baseline ALT activity could be evidence of liver damage, even if it is within normal limits by standard ALT reference ranges.

What is ALT Activity?

Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is a clinical tool that can be used by veterinarians to better monitor liver health. This result is not associated with liver disease. ALT is one of several values veterinarians measure on routine blood work to evaluate the liver. It is a naturally occurring enzyme located in liver cells that helps break down protein. When the liver is damaged or inflamed, ALT is released into the bloodstream.

Through “Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted’s mitochondrial DNA we can trace his mother’s ancestry back to where dogs and people first became friends. This map helps you visualize the routes that his ancestors took to your home. Their story is described below the map.

Haplogroup

Haplotype

A11a

Map

A1d

“Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted’s Haplogroup

This female lineage can be traced back about 15,000 years to some of the original Central Asian wolves that were domesticated into modern dogs. The early females that represent this lineage were likely taken into Eurasia, where they spread rapidly. As a result, many modern breed and village dogs from the Americas, Africa, through Asia and down into Oceania belong to this group! This widespread lineage is not limited to a select few breeds, but the majority of Rottweilers, Afghan Hounds and Wirehaired Pointing Griffons belong to it. It is also the most common female lineage among Papillons, Samoyeds and Jack Russell Terriers. Considering its occurrence in breeds as diverse as Afghan Hounds and Samoyeds, some of this is likely ancient variation. But because of its presence in many modern European breeds, much of its diversity likely can be attributed to much more recent breeding.

A11a

“Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted’s Haplotype

Part of the large A1d haplogroup, this common haplotype occurs in village dogs all over the world. Among the 23 breeds we have sampled it in, the most common occurrences include Rottweilers, English Setters, English Springer Spaniels, and wirehaired pointing griffons.

The vast majority of Rottweilers have the A1d haplogroup.

Map

A2b

“Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted’s Haplogroup

A2b appears to have split a few times in succession, which means that some of the Central Asian male ancestors of this lineage went their separate ways before their respective Y chromosomes made their rounds. There is not much diversity in this lineage, meaning that it has only begun to take off recently. Two iconic breeds, the Dachshund and Bloodhound, represent this lineage well. Over half of Rottweilers are A2b, as are the majority of Labrador Retrievers and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. While A2a is restricted mostly to East Asia, this paternal line is also found among European breeds.

Hc.10

“Rookie” Dozers Runtley Persisted’s Haplotype

Part of the A2b haplogroup, this haplotype occurs most commonly in Labrador Retrievers, Rottweilers, Curly-Coated Retrievers, Dandie Dinmont Terriers, and village dogs throughout the world.

A2b is found in the Daschund breed.
