Breed Diversity
No Evidence
Breed diversity testing's relevance is likely to be breed/type specific. However, all purpose-bred dogs have the potential to benefit from genetic diversity
Coat Colour Brown
No Evidence
Coat colour and pattern are not usually breed-specific, but testing may be common in certain breeds
Coat Colour Dilution, dilution, MLPH-related
No Evidence

No Evidence
Coat Colour Panda White Spotting
No Evidence

No Evidence
Coat colour and pattern are not usually breed-specific, but testing may be common in certain breeds

No Evidence
Mutation is fixed, or common in many breeds, but is not currently reported in all breeds
Curly Coat
No Evidence

Hair, Long
No Evidence
Hair length testing has the potential relevance to any dog, but test usage is most often applied to those breeds with a heritage of these traits.

Both clinically rare and of complex inheritance. Test is considered poorly correlated with risk for development of DM, and recommendations are to not use the test for breed-wide breeding strategies. While the SOD 1 variant may be commonly found across many breeds, there are few clinical cases observed and confirmed, and in many cases DM has never been observed in the breeds.
