Test Overview:

Genetic testing for the AGL gene mutations is recommended for Curly Coat Retriever breeding dogs to identify carriers and affected animals. Dogs homozygous for mutations should not be bred to avoid affected offspring. Carriers can be bred only to clear dogs to minimize risk of affected puppies while maintaining genetic diversity. Avoid breeding two carriers together to reduce incidence. Sharing genotype data among breeders promotes responsible breeding choices.
