Hi Bek
von Willebrand’s disease is classified as Type 1, Type 2 or Type 3.  Type 1 vWd is the form that occurs in Dobermanns.  vWD is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait.
Need a bit more info off the results if this is no help

Can’t help with test results sorry but…….. who is Bruno  ;D

[bek]

Have found the post now and reminded myself  ;D Can I ask why he was tested for VWD?

[bek]

for breeding i presume

Type 1 vWD is the most common found in dobermann it shows by a reduction in the plasma concentration of all multimer sizes.  Affected homozygote dogs have plasma vWF concentrations between 5% and 20% of normal (normal: 75%-170% I seem to have a different range than your vet.
Heterozygote carriers usually have plasma vWF concentrations less than 50% of normal (30%-50%) but some carriers can have vWF concentrations of 50%-75% of normal making it difficult to differentiate these carriers from unaffected dogs on the basis of vWF antigen bioassay alone.
Did they give you the test results so that I can see the test they did if you have them stick them in an email to me so I can read them don’t put them on the board  😮 as we may see them posted elswhere
Good on Bruno’s mum for testing

val lee (brunos mum) will be picking them up from vet tomorrow or thursday so will email when she gets them thanks for the help.
Also if somone no’s dobermann pedigrees could they help if i send them a 5 generation pedigree at first i thought he was pet breed but even though his breeder has no affix when lee showed me his 5 generation pedigree i noticed his dad is a jw winner also has ch/cm in brackets not sure what it means also his mum is champion sired also has champions in every generation, in some more then a few seems well breed so just need some help

[Anonymous]

Send a copy of the pedigree over and I will look at it
Have to say breeding is not all about the paper the standard of the dog its self plays a big part
