Brodin Michael 🌈💔
20 Feb 2005 - 19 Sept 2022
Seventeen and a half years of you. I brought him home 31st March 2005. Brodin was small, sick and the sweetest little thing. (Which we later learned was because he was sick.) Once I got that teeny chihuahua feeling better he became the spiciest little dog you ever did meet.
He was an honorary dachshund; having been brought home to a house full of them and passing away in a house full of them. But he was the boss. Top dog. Not to be messed with. It didn’t matter the size of the dog either. In his younger years he was known to corner a Great Dane, Doberman and Staffy. He was genuinely fearless.
But Brodin was also my heart and soul and my guardian Angel. We grew up together. He was there, by my side through it all. He was with me through university, moving states, breakups, career changes, moving countries, marriage and even bringing home a human baby. Seventeen and half years is a long time. Longer than most marriages, older than all of my friends children.
Brodin passed away with kisses on the forehead from me and a gentl hand on his back from his other-mother, Kylie . He was surrounded by love.
My heart is broken, but grateful. To have loved and lived with a dog for 17.5 years is a special, special gift.

We still test for PRA, but I agree with quite a few points in this post.

I’ve been screaming this from the roof tops for over 10 years!

I saw this comment in a post and I can’t agree more with it! It’s an extremely controversial subject and it’s been discussed many times but I absolutely love how Amber Thomas-Teel stated this!!
PRA occurs in less than 1% of dachshunds. And of that 1%, only 1% actually lose their vision. The test is so inaccurate that most labs have stopped performing it. Testing is a tool. Not all testing is backed by science on the specific breed. In my program, we test for certain traits and genetic mutations when we feel it is necessary, as long as the science is there to "back up" the results.
PRA is a flawed test for gene that MIGHT lead to a gene that MIGHT lead to PRA. The UK stopped testing in 2013 due to testing being deemed ineffectual. Even an affected dog may never get PRA, and a clear dog can get PRA.
PRA can be bred out in 3 generations. Sad to think we would throw away potentially excellent DNA by neutering when there are breeding solutions. So many dogs were culled over PRA testing and sadly we will never recover some incredible bloodlines as a result.
The other issue with PRA testing is that there are over 40 cords and they only test cord 1 and 4. So it’s very misleading for any breeder to claim their dogs are clear, when they are only clear of 2/40 cords.
Plus, what if you test and you have a recessive with both parents?
Only the dominant comes out in the tests.
So, you could have two tested dogs that have a clear screening but if both parents carry a recessive then you end up having it pop up anyway.
I choose to follow the advise of my veterinarian. He has been practicing for over 40 years and has never seen a dachshund develop blindness as a result of PRA. He has seen dogs test positive for being PRA affected, only to have a completely normal examination by an Opthamologist. He does not believe the science is solid on the testing.
We have personally never had a dachshund with vision issues. However if we ever did, vision loss due to a congenital defect would be covered under our health guarantee. If we began seeing this issue in our lines we would make some hard decisions. At this time no such issue has presented itself.
We understand and respect that not all breeders and buyers feel this way about this specific test, and that is there decision to make. Our stance is that we do not speak poorly of anyone who chooses to invest in PRA testing, we just ask for the same courtesy to be shown to our program.
I think there are so many other areas of higher risk that Dachshund breeders should focus on, but instead they tout PRA clear dogs as genetically sound, when that’s absolutely not always the case.

🎉 HAPPY🎉 17th 🎉BIRTHDAY🎉
Our little, old man, Brodin Michael is 17 years old today!

I remember bringing him home, rather spontaneously, when I was 20 years old. I woke up on the middle of the night panicked that this chihuahua puppy might be around until I’m 30 😱

Now I’m just hoping this sassy dude makes it until I’m 40. He’s truly done life with me. Two countries, countless states.

We love you Brodin!!!
