OptiGen limits prcd-PRA testing to SHOW-BRED LINES of English Cocker Spaniel. Comments from European veterinarians indicate that PRA in European English Cockers that are dark red to ginger in color seem to have an earlier onset form of the disease. These animals differ greatly in appearance and are probably more representative of what one might expect to see in a "field-bred" animal, or the "generic" backyard variety.

OK, seriously, the American Cockers are smaller than English Cockers, and have a shorter snout. If you ever see a dog that looks like a big Cocker with a goofy long nose, you're probably looking at an English Cocker. Look at the differences in the snouts of the two Cockers pictured here, and I think you'll see it. The coat coloring of the two breeds tends to be different, too. While buff, black, brown or parti colors are common in the American Cocker..

The test lets you identify normal dogs clear of the disease gene so you can better plan breeding strategies. It tells the status of an individual dog and gives a more accurate assessment of the risk of developing PRA, and eliminates the need for future ERGs in those dogs whose tests come back Normal/Clear or Carrier. announced June 1, 2005, OptiGen now provides a direct mutation test for prcd-PRA. The marker test has been retired.

Yes! The biggest buying market in the world is the USA. The biggest search engines cater to the US market so you can get setup to sell from anywhere. 90% + of your traffic will be from the US & you can sell to them without problem because all the dropshippers ship anywhere in the US & most ship to Canada as well. Eventually the EU will be a bigger market, but the diverse language/culture issues are making it harder to sell to this as a unified market.

Cocker Spaniel Rescue (CSR) is a non-profit, volunteer organization dedicated to finding forever homes for abandoned, mistreated, unloved, unwanted or lost cocker spaniels. The rescues are given a complete health check and are assessed for temperament. The health check includes all shots, fecal, spay/neuter, and heartworm test. The adoption fee covers these items only.

To start the adoption approval process you need to complete the adoption application form. This form is posted on the website, can be obtained by calling the hotline at (281) 319-3131 or one can be picked up at an adoption. Once you have returned the application, CSR reviews the application to determine your eligibility and suggest which dog(s) match your lifestyle the best. A vet or personal referral is reviewed and a one-on-one interview is conducted during a home visit.

Make sure you are taking him to the same place outside every time. Find a nice patch of lawn, and make that his designated potty spot. In time, as he gets used to that one spot, and smells his old urine there, it will get a lot easier to have him go there. Clean up all accidents in the house extremely well, so he doesn't smell the urine there later. you get to know him better over time, you should start to notice some patterns..

Your dog has what sounds like excitement urination. Young dogs that are not completely developed neuromuscularly and that have excitable personalities often suffer from this. Generally, any exciting stimulus can trigger excitement urination. Typically, affected dogs outgrow this disorder.

Keys to controlling this disorder include the following: Try to teach her to relax and ignore excitable situations.
