Nishasmom,

I still would do the DNA test then you know for sure if your dog is a carrier, normal or affected. Trust me This boy had a weird pattern of coat length reall heavy on his chest but it looked like he carried a bit of a heavier undercoat, down his neck and back were normal length. heavier on the breeching area and just all over looked like he had more undercoat then what was out. Trust me several well know breeder and handlers just thought he carrier a correct length of coat with a heavy undercoat. If you would like FBKeays maybe Poohbearsmom will atest that my boy looked correct until a certain age. It had NOTHING but him coming back AFFECTED on the DNA test was why I chose and his breeder chose to stop showing him. Some breeders have morals.
