PDP1 Below is a list of Kennel Club registered dogs of the breed specified above, together with their sire and dam, that were DNA tested for the recessively inherited disease specified above. The result of the test can be either CLEAR (no copies of the mutant gene), CARRIER (one copy of the mutant gene) or AFFECTED (two copies of the mutant gene). Note that the progeny of a clear sire and clear dam will also be clear (hereditarily clear), and the progeny of two hereditarily clear, or one hereditarily clear and one tested clear dog will also be hereditarily clear.
