The original data used to create the Biewer profile was not good.. I don't believe there was 100 dogs.. they SAID they used 100.. questionable at best! And, if they were all Biewers.. also, questionable.. with the results they were getting you have to wonder WHAT they used as there test samples??

I'm all for science and believe me, if it was a test using anyone else's data OTHER than the BTCA'S I'd be all for it.. I dare say everyone would be.

But, it still wouldn't get me to breed Biewer to Biewer.. Health First is my motivation.. nothing else matters in my book.

And I was writing a reply when you wrote this . I agree, if you're going to develop a breed-specific test, you need to test a wide variety of dogs. But at the same time, they need to conform to some kind of standard. I would love to see the test results for Biewers that come from other groups and from other parts of the US. I'll leave it at that. Please post information about that law suit you mentioned if you have it. Thanks!
