Ylana

Mixed Ancestry

“Although Ylana looks like a toy-dog (4 kg, 22 cm high) she thinks she is a giant. Not afraid of anything. She loves people, children, most dogs, food, her rubber chicken and ball, and sniffing around. She hates rain. She is headstrong and not very obidient 🤣 And has a strong huntingdrive. She is allergic of some grasses 😥 At her adoption, were told she is JRT. But we suspected a mix of JRT and some toy-dog. That is why we had her dna tested. The outcome was a big and welcome surprise.”

Health Summary

warn icon

Ylana inherited one variant that you should learn more about.

Degenerative Myelopathy, DM

warn icon

Ylana inherited one copy of the variant we tested

What does this result mean?

This variant should not impact Ylana’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. Ylana is unlikely to develop this condition due to this variant because she only has one copy of the variant.

What is Degenerative Myelopathy, DM?

The dog equivalent of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, DM is a progressive degenerative disorder of the spinal cord. Because the nerves that control the hind limbs are the first to degenerate, the most common clinical signs are back muscle wasting and gait abnormalities.

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

Haplogroup

A1b

Haplotype

A410

Map

A1b

Ylana’s Haplogroup

This female lineage was very likely one of the original lineages in the wolves that were first domesticated into dogs in Central Asia about 15,000 years ago. Since then, the lineage has been very successful and travelled the globe! Dogs from this group are found in ancient Bronze Age fossils in the Middle East and southern Europe. By the end of the Bronze Age, it became exceedingly common in Europe. These dogs later became many of the dogs that started some of today's most popular breeds, like German Shepherds, Pugs, Whippets, English Sheepdogs and Miniature Schnauzers. During the period of European colonization, the lineage became even more widespread as European dogs followed their owners to far-flung places like South America and Oceania. It's now found in many popular breeds as well as village dogs across the world!

A410

Ylana’s Haplotype

Part of the A1b haplogroup, the A410 haplotype occurs most commonly in Cimarron Uruguayos and Small Poodles.

A1b is the most common haplogroup found in German Shepherds.

The Paternal Haplotype reveals a dog’s deep ancestral lineage, stretching back thousands of years to the original domestication of dogs.

Are you looking for information on the breeds that Ylana inherited from her mom and dad? Check out her breed breakdown and family tree.

Paternal Haplotype is determined by looking at a dog’s Y-chromosome—but not all dogs have Y-chromosomes!

Why can’t we show Paternal Haplotype results for female dogs?

All dogs have two sex chromosomes. Female dogs have two X-chromosomes (XX) and male dogs have one X-chromosome and one Y-chromosome (XY). When having offspring, female (XX) dogs always pass an X-chromosome to their puppy. Male (XY) dogs can pass either an X or a Y-chromosome—if the puppy receives an X-chromosome from its father then it will be a female (XX) puppy and if it receives a Y-chromosome then it will be a male (XY) puppy. As you can see, Y-chromosomes are passed down from a male dog only to its male offspring.

Since Ylana is a female (XX) dog, she has no Y-chromosome for us to analyze and determine a paternal haplotype.
