A DNA test report for a female Golden Retriever named Zubee, belonging to Lee Ann Heldt. The report includes breed health tests for various genetic conditions like Degenerative Myelopathy and Ichthyosis. Results show whether the dog is clear or a variant for specific genetic markers, using genes like SOD1A and PNPLA1.

*Important Note: The test results indicate that Zubee is a carrier for Ichthyosis ICH1 (doggy dandruff). Since she is only a carrier, she does not have Ichthyosis. She is clinically healthy and will not have any symptoms of Ichthyosis. All our males are clear of Ichthyosis, meaning it is impossible for their puppies to be affected by the condition (the puppies may end up carriers themselves or totally clear, but either way, they will also be clinically healthy and not have any symptoms of Ichthyosis). If you are a breeder who may end up breeding a Zubee offspring to an Ichthyosis carrier in the future, it may be best to look at a different litter, or DNA test the puppy to see if they are a carrier or not. Otherwise, zero problems will arise from her being a carrier for anyone else wanting a Zubee puppy!
