Dalmatian Health Information

Dalmatian Breeders have the opportunity to assist a multi national research project aiming to locate a genetic marker for deafness in Dalmatians.  If this marker can be located a genetic test maybe developed which will assist breeders to chose dogs that do not carry genes for deafness.
