WOW! What an incredible job and years of work to get this test available!WE DID IT!! Genetic testing for risk of cruciate ligament rupture in the Labrador Retriever is here.
Cruciate ligament rupture is a common problem in several popular breeds including the Labrador Retriever, Rottweiler, and Newfoundland, equivalent to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture in human beings. We have been working on this study for many years and are now exceptionally pleased to announce the availability of a genetic screening test for risk of cruciate ligament rupture in Labradors. This is a marker-based risk test because cruciate ligament rupture is influenced by changes in many different genes and is different from most genetic testing in dogs. For more information about this test, it’s value and information about this disease, please visit:
www.vetmed.wisc.edu/lab/corl/canine-genetic-testing/
We are extremely grateful to the community that we work with for supporting this endeavor. Please look out for future updates on progress with this program, as we are now focusing effort on extending this cruciate ligament rupture genetic testing to other high-risk breeds including the Rottweiler and the Newfoundland.
Availability of genetic testing.
We are currently setting up this genetic testing service at the School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison. We anticipate the cost of the marker-based risk test will be ~$250. We welcome expressions of interest or questions about this important development in the Comparative Genetics and Orthopaedic Research Laboratory at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Please email us if you are interested in getting your Labrador Retriever tested.

Reproductive services
Further to my last post regarding breeding pets during COVID.
I truly enjoy this portion of my Veterinary work. I’ve invested a lot of time, energy and finances into honing my skills in this area and have subsequently garnered a decent reputation for my abilities with reproductive work.
I would be devastated if we were embroiled in litigation relating to the breeding of pets with known health issues, no matter how tenuous our involvement.
Thankfully, we are in the fortunate position of having the vast majority of our current clientele being conscientious breeders.
To this end, after serious consideration and discussion, Dr Rachael and I have decided that we cannot, in good faith, offer dog breeding assistance to those pets that have not been appropriately health checked.

Thank you for all that you both do and thank you for making this decision.
Lil squishy babies!!!! Good for you mate…. Breeding for health & quality is still possible when done correctly
Good on you for taking a stand and following your conviction ❤️
Brilliant!
Hopefully more vets will take this stand

Since 2009, when Dr. Rebekah Day, BVSc (Dr. Bek) first opened a small clinic in Porepunkah, Alpine Animal Doctors has grown to become the ‘most trusted’ veterinary practice in the region. Our clients and patients come from across the Alpine region — from Myrtleford, Yackandandah and Beechworth to Bright, Harrietville and Mt Beauty.
With an A-Z of almost 350 veterinary services available our team is equipped to provide the optimum level of care for all conditions, and for all animal species, great or small, including farm livestock.
Our clinic is fully equipped with the most up to date equipment available, with state-of-the-art facilities the equal of any capital city-based specialist veterinary facility. We are constantly re-evaluating and upgrading our equipment and facilities to ensure that our patients receive only the very best treatment outcomes — the same level of care that we would want for our own animal family.
Dr. Bek’s team Includes our newly appointed Dr Rachael Harfield and our amazing nurses Mary, Cassie, Emily and Maddie — are all locals, all professionally qualified or currently studying, and dedicated to ensuring your animals are treated with compassion and kindness. Our practice is skillfully and successfully managed by Mark, Dr. Bek’s partner.
Most importantly, everyone at Alpine Animal Doctors loves animals just as much as you do. It’s why we do what we do. Our high tech equipment and advanced facilities are important, but, more than anything else, what makes us different is our people and our dedication.
