Question from June Jonigk
I was going to bring up the DNA testing issue again. Technology has moved on so much now. There was so much talk last year about who had dogs that were non peds, and who was suspected of using non peds at stud, that I think the time has come for us all to be testing. It is so inexpensive now at £15 a dog, that I think it should at least be encouraged. I imagine in a few years time it will be commonplace anyway.
I'll throw that in for starters )
Good Idea June- The £15 could be added to the cost of the passport.
I wonder if the data could be converted to a Bar Code and a copy attached to the passport. We could then use bar code readers check data with the Runner.
Passport file could hold all the data and then when a pup gets registered his/her DNA could be checked against his/her Sire and Dame's DNA. 8)
