  • The International Partnership for Dogs

    The International Partnership for Dogs (IPFD) is a non-profit organization leading a global, multi-stakeholder effort to enhance dog health, well-being, and welfare.

      Around the world many people regard their pets as family members, and we want to help provide the best possible care for them. Screening can help identify the cause of a current problem as well as reduce the risk of future conditions to increase the health of future generations. Animal Genetics offers customers throughout the world a large number of tests for canine hereditary diseases, traits including color and parentage verification.

      About Us:

      For over 25 years, Animal Genetics has delivered high quality, friendly service to our customers in the United States, Europe and the world. Our DNA testing services enable individuals to better understand and manage risk associated with a variety of infectious diseases and inherited genetic disorders, while optimizing their breeding programs through genetic screening.

      Animal Genetics offers a variety of canine genetic testing services. Coat color and length testing allows breeders to anticipate the phenotypes of potential offspring, maximizing the potential to produce the most favorable coat types. In most pure bred dogs, inherited genetic disorders are a become. Many of these disorders are recessive, meaning that a dog can be a carrier of a potentially devastating disease and not show any signs. DNA testing helps breeders improve the health of a litter by screening for genetic disorders. Genetic testing is an extremely accurate and reliable way of determining a dog’s genotype and screening for possible genetic disorders.

      Research and Publications:

      Due to an increase in the number of Australian Shepherds, as well as other breeds, being diagnosed with Pelger-Huet Anomaly, Animal Genetics is interested in finding the genetic basis for this inherited disease. We hope to develop a DNA test that is cost effective, doesn't require a vet visit, and can be performed using non-invasive cheek swab samples.  Read more
