PRA Status List
 
The following dogs names are a result of blood testing for the presence of the alpha subunit cGMP phosphodiesterase gene mutation known to cause Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) in Cardigan Welsh Corgis. Dogs found to be unaffected/clear of the mutation do not pass it on to their offspring. The offspring of two unaffected/clear dogs should be unaffected/clear themselves. There were additional dogs posted to various computer lists and identified there as either carriers or clear/unaffected. However, because the results have not been verified, they are not included here.

This PRA Status Page is provided by the CWCCA as a service to breeders and puppy buyers. Breeders will find the list invaluable in identifying both PRA carriers and unaffected dogs in the pedigrees of their breeding stock. By identifying carriers and carefully selecting mates for these dogs, the eventual elimination of this disease is now possible. Puppy buyers can use this list to identify carriers in their puppy's pedigree, also. However, be aware that the "Carrier" status of any individual dog does not affect that dog's health in any way. It is the breeding of two carriers together that produces PRA. According to the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists, the Cardigan breed in North America has less than 1% of dogs affected with PRA.

To include a dog, please send either copies of the test results for tested dogs or pedigree information for line-cleared dogs to Tricia Olson at:

PRA Status Search  Updated through 7/1/2010

This list is VERY LONG. To help you narrow the results, you can choose to view only a certain type of result by choosing from the list box below and pressing "Search".

  


You can also search by DOG NAME here. This is a "begins with" search, so if you enter "K" you will find all dogs with registered names beginning with K, if you enter "Ka", you will find all dogs beginning with that, and so on. If you enter a full registered name you will find only that dog, but keep in mind that this search is SENSITIVE TO SPELLING AND GRAMMATICAL MARKS, so if you enter "Smith's Big Boy" and it's entered into here as "Smiths Big Boy" that dog will NOT BE FOUND IN THAT CASE because of the apostrophe. So if you can't find a dog that you believe should be in here, perhaps try with different spelling, or enter in fewer letters to return broader results.
