Abstract

There is increasing evidence that many forms of congenital and acquired disease in veterinary medicine are of a familial origin. A veterinary practioner may be consulted on genetic issues of breeding animals to assist in breeding decisions and to provide pet owners information regarding etiology of diseases. Knowledge of mode of inheritance of a disease and information on possible genetic markers will help the practioner to arrive at recommendations for an individual animal and for breeding.
