Gold dot = this dog · Gold line = current breed avg · Sage line = avg since 2024 · Gray line = avg before 2018 · For OI: higher is better. For AGR and IR: lower is better.
DLA Haplotypes — Class I | Class II · frequency in breed database
Find potential mates for this dog, ranked by OI — the recommended primary metric for preserving allelic diversity. Also ranked by AGR and Genetic Relatedness. Available on your dashboard.
View Potential Mates →OI and IR are genetic diversity metrics intended to inform breeding decisions at the population level. They do not diagnose disease, predict individual health outcomes, or substitute for breed-required health testing or veterinary guidance. Conformation, temperament, longevity, and health history all belong in this decision.
