This is my dog she has done it about once a summer, it is soo scary when this happens. She is the best hunting dog out there I love her to pieces she is laying next to me as I type lol we all those are also my other two dogs the brown lab has passed away and we miss her very much. There was one time that we that we that she wouldnt come out of it but thankfully she did. She was one of the first cases and the university made a test with the help of my family to help other labs out there.
Of the three labs I've had, the first one had this condition. It normally surfaced in the summer months after he became overheated chasing tennis balls. We bought a small kiddie pool made of plastic so that he could immerse himself when his rear legs would give out and he appeared to walk like a drunken sailor. He was never in pain from this condition and we simply stopped exercising him until he cooled back down. He lived a wonderful life until we put him down at age 13. I miss him.
lol, i know its random, but my thumb does this. when the wether is really cold i cant move my thumb and it sorta collapses when i try to do anything. it didnt happen until i broke my thumb, and ever since that its happened.
I HATE it! i cant do anth9ing for like half an hour!
You guys are FUCKING IDIOTS!!! Did you not understand when he said the dog recovers from a half our rest. And also when he said they experience no pain. You guys are the irresponsible people here when you're saying it should be put to sleep and it shouldn't have pups. It's nature and if it's happy, then we should be too.
@Iscaregrownups Nice, calling everyone idiots...exactly how is it nature for humans to genetically engineer animals for hundreds of years causing severe, and sometimes fatal, disorders? And before someone as "smart" as you replies, yes, controlling the breeding of dogs for specific traits is genetic engineering.
@mphst6 "Genetic engineering, also called genetic modification, is the direct human manipulation of an organism's genetic material in a way that does not occur under natural conditions. It involves the use of recombinant DNA techniques, but does not include traditional animal and plant breeding or mutagenesis"
I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just saying that Genetic Engineering isn't breeding.
@Pelicomics the "also called" messed it up. Look up Mendel. It was all breeding, controlling genes from parents to produce a desired outcome. The genes are not altered in any way at a chemical level (I don't think Gregor could do that in 1860). We (humans) have been genetically breeding (or engineering: construct, manage, control) corn for millennia. Forced breeding, whether it be plant or animal, is genetic engineering.
Lol that's the funniest fucking disease i've ever seen, it's like you're running and running from a rapist, and then, oh shit, boom, you fall down, LOLOLOLOLOL.
Pure bred dogs are inbred dogs - ask a geneticist.
The only pure unadulterated breed is the wolf - canus lupus.
All other dogs are selectively bred from this animal - canus familiaris is a wolf selectively bred for temperament and use. inbreeding is the cause of all species of dog from Dingo to african wild dog to lap dogs and working hounds.
Human intervention created the domestic dog - genetic defects are the cost.
@tomview1 You say 'inbred' like is a bad thing, LOL. a close mating will double up on any recessive gene and in healthy lines this will cement all the good characteristic. But in bad, unhealthy or untested/unknown lines, it will also bring out all those bad genetic diseases. Just ask a geneticist.
When done properly, and ethically, inbreeding can be a very useful tool to a breeder, and its a real shame that legeslation is being brought in in places that take away their choice.
@tomview1 i will juust add (sorry to go on about it) but the wolf is healthy becasue its gene pool is controlled by natural selection. Only the Alpha dog and bitch will breed and they are the strongest, and therefore healthiest, and will pass on those healthy and strong genes to the next generations.
Domestic dogs aren't so lucky. If they have a health issue, a vet will fix it, and there is nothing stopping the owner then breeding that dog, and passing on those genes.
@tomview1 so, i'll conclude (again, i am sorry to keep going on about it LOL) there are only two ways to breed healthy dogs. One is the complete absence of human intervention, but this wont allow us to have any choice in the size, shape and temprement of the animals we bring into our home and keep around out children.
The other is absolute control and knowing every little gene your dog is carrying and what it will produce. and you can only do that with the strict record keeping ei pedigrees.
@crystilei "Just ask a geneticist" - ummmm My partner is a biotechnologist, who has extensively studied genetics and produced inbred lines under clinical conditions with several different species.
So yeah I have asked a geneticist, and she thinks you're an idiot.
Pure breeds suffer from common rare deleterious recessive genes (rare because only found in low concentrations in cross breeds and mutts) that are brought together due to inbreeding. These rare recessive genes are VERY hard to breed out of the population without genetic screening.
"Scientists have discovered" translates to "Scientists have performed torturous experiments on animals kept prisoner in laboratories, and performed tests on them causing excruciating pain and suffering". Mankind sucks ass.
@localdog And have thereby made a discovery that will help far far more dogs (and humans and other animals) live a more pleasant life with less pain for centuries to come.
Short sighted ignorance sucks ass.
Also, this type of experiment is exceedingly unlikely to have caused any pain for the dog.
@localdog All they need to do is get a DNA sample and PCR it, you're just ignorant. Much older studies may have been like you said but according to the journal article it didn’t sound that bad.
If the dog is in pain, why is it still running after the ball? If someone states that it's not painful, you should do some research before refuting that statement.
@Sublue Actually, you can have a mutt that has genetic disease from all the parent breeds.
That mutts are more healthy is a lie foisted by people that refuse to be responsible and churn out mix bred mongrels to feed a grown mutty-poo puppy trade.. those so called designer dogs.
You can have a dog that has HD from the shepherd in it, renal atrophy from the lab in him, deafness from the boxer in him, and wobbles from from dobie in him.
@LaBellissimaNotte A mutt isn't the same as a designer dog; it's got bloodlines from more than two breeds usually. If it's any "propoganda", it's pro-adoption of strays in shelters, which is very responsible.
And regardless, a dog of two breeds is STILL less likely to have the gene matchups causing genetic problems, since both parents have to have the recessive genes for these problems to emerge in the puppies, and different breeds are statistically less likely to meet that requirement.
@xZaCloudx It all depends on the breed. When you have breeds that come from the same common source (At one time cocker and springer spaniels were born in the same litter), then a crossing of those breeds, should the breed have a common disease factor could cause that recessive to manifest.
Many breeds have crosses in them from back in the formation of the breed, recessives appearing in the progeny from apparently completely unrelated animals.
@xZaCloudx Understand I an VERY pro-adoption, I do not feel that every dog has a right to breed, and I think that every dog should be strenuously tested genetically to be allowed to breed to wipe these diseases from the bloodlines, however, I also recognize that breeding for form not function is a detriment to any breed of dog. And the tight in and line breeding present in pure lines HAS contributed to the poor health of some breeds.
@xZaCloudx Last it is worth noting that the records of a Swedish company that insured 200,000 dogs between 1995 and 2002 found that of the 80 most popular breeds, the dog requiring the most medical care was the pedigree Boxer. A "mixed breed" category came in at 68. Healthiest was something called a Norbottenspitz, a Scandinavian hunting dog.
So mixed bred dogs AS I SAID, DO have their problems, especially when they are just as indiscriminately bred as pure bred puppy mill dogs.
@Sublue Ethical pure breeding allows you to know what genes are in you lines and this knowledge can be used to choose the might mate when breeding. There is absolutely no way of knowing what genes are in a mutt, so you are just playing a game of chance.
@crystilei But having said that, when you do breed a pure pred dog to another pure bred dog (of the same breed) without knowing the genes they carry, then, yes, you do increase the liklihood of denetic defects. But that is not Ethical pure bred breeding.
And when bringing a different species into our homes, a good degree of predictability is very important, and you only get this with pure breeds.
@Sublue A falacy, where do you think "mutts" come from? the ones you find in shelters and free didnt mysteriously appear there by magic, ALL dogs have genetic flaws, you see it more in purebreds because they are TESTED for things, obviously if you dont test for a disease in a mutt they dont have it... right!
A mutt owner might attribute lameness to "old age" or arthritis and dismiss it, when in fact the dog has dysplasia which theyd see if they XRAYED but dont.
@doggiejigs well yes and no ,, mutts are a mix of genes and get the best (or the worst) of both or just sit right in the middle but if your going for tested the reason most mutts dont get tested is because they have no reason to be tested, pure of blood does mean fit or strong it just means pure, evolution adaptation itself in any species of any animal came strictly from NOT being pure and hav genetic flaws
If I had a dog with this problem I would buy him a wheelchair just for going to the park, so he could run all he wanted...and then rest, of course! :)
"If I had a dog with this problem I would buy him a wheelchair just for going to the park, so he could run all he wanted...and then rest, of course! :)"
Never seen that in my life. Had lab's all my life nd the only problem ive ever seen was my old dog Hollie had a hip problem, which is quite common apparently. Turned out she had a tumor on her hips nd had 2 put her down. Such a shame... got a new 1 now tho... 5 month old :D
loool look at him he soo happy its like the legs dont bother him if they did that would be sad but watching this just makes me look at this dog and no its happy 5*s
That is one of the amazing things with animals. They simply take what has been given them instead of whining about what they could have. He is perfectly fine with his deformity and plays and has fun just like a regular dog. He looks so happy.
Our dog has this problem but she's not a pure lab. She's part border collie and part lab and we think there is a third breed mix in there somewhere since she's small for being part lab. I didn't know anything about this problem but our dog runs hard and is faster than ANY dog she's ever encountered in the dog run. She's Super Dog when she's running. However, when she's been running for awhile really hard her hind legs just give out. She does recover quickly, though.
"What I meant was that they don't feel pain because of this disease."
Can still be read as you state that they loose their ability to feel pain BECAUSE of this disease. What you probably meant was that this disease isn't causing them any extra pain other than falling onto the ground. ;D
if they feel no pain why not just leave them b, gosh do somthing that really needs to be done maybe this global warming thing or something else the dogs are fine. who agrees?
It's really not that sad O.o, they're totally adapted to it...the interesting thing about this is that it's a result of our breeding of them... everything that humans breed is geneticly altered, lol, but it was the fate of the universe via mechanics anyways

I think you may be referring to hip dysplasia. That is a genetic malformation of the hip joint that is graded in degrees of severity and usually gets worse as a dog ages. It is painful and causes arthritis in the joint, frequently inhibiting a dogs ability to get up from a sitting position, and or move around, again depending on severity of the condition.
althought labradors look nice the are one of the most messed with in terms breeding and therefor labradors have loads of genetic diseases and abnormalities. its a shame to think what we have done just to breed a nice looking dog
They're so messed up now because of irresponsible breeding. Labs are so popular now, and that is causing a lot of inbreeding and all that to keep up with the demand for them. Breeders test for genetic issues and won't breed the ones that carry the genes...so you can still get a good lab (and trust me, they are awesome and worth it). Just know where you lab is coming from, that's all! :D
maybe its evolution. A mutation so the animals dont were them selves out. As a dog has never been so happy to excersize as much as they do by being with humans. Kinda like a damper. Evolution isnt cutting down on thepower they have so it took a jump in the form of a mutation/disese...
I can't believe how flip these comments are, and "don't worry about it?" So a test is available, as an ex breeder, I know that doesn't mean people will test. Why do you think there is such outrage about Puppy Mills, Back Yard breeders, and ignorant folks that just want "Muffy" to have a litter before she's fixed, or more when they find out they can make some money. Poor dog, it has such a happy playful spirit, it just doesn't seem fair for an active, exuberant breed like a lab to be so hindered.
It's because it's most likely recessive, so it requires two of the faulty genes to show the disease where as a third carry only one of the deffective gene and therefore not all have the disease.
Yeah but still, 1 in 3 means a 1 in 9 chance of both parents having the gene. Statistically speaking one quarter of the litter would get the gene from both parents, meaning 1 out of every 36 labradors should have this condition. Considering labs are one of the most popular breeds out there, that would means a lot of dogs should have this.
Well, at least we are seeing the start of genetic screening of unwanted traits in our breeding attempts. In my opinion it should be mandatory. If we can prevent the suffering of animals by better breeding practices, I'm all for it.
YES! if it is KNOWN 2 parent genes will make a child with a fatal disease which will only lead to suffering and a early death?I think any reasonable parent given to option will like to know in advance if they will make a dieing child =/
were not talking about death for the dog... were talking about living with a disablilty? would you want to tell parents that they shouldn't have kids because there child could come out retarded?
yes,I think so =/ we do that already. its illegal to married your cousin =D but on a serious note. a gene that if both the parents have, the child will be super sensitive to light, with that disability, the kid will have to be under the shade his/her whole life, home schooled, and constantly monitored, if parents knew this in advance, I doubt they willing want a life like that for their child.
"Removing" a gene (allele) is never a solution. Replacing it could be--but so far that has not been medically successful.
Treat it? Not as simple as it sounds. The job of a gene (in a cell), is to make a certain protein, at a certain--variable--rate, sent to a certain place (often staying within the cell itself). So far, also, accomplishing this has been of limited medical success. Best known example: insulin. It SAVES lives--but insulin dependence is still an early-senescence sentence.

Our dog has this problem but she's not a pure lab. She's part border collie and part lab and we think there is a third breed mix in there somewhere since she's small for being part lab. I didn't know anything about this problem but our dog runs hard and is faster than ANY dog she's ever encountered in the dog run. She's Super Dog when she's running. However, when she's been running for awhile really hard her hind legs just give out. She does recover quickly, though.

"What I meant was that they don't feel pain because of this disease."
Can still be read as you state that they loose their ability to feel pain BECAUSE of this disease. What you probably meant was that this disease isn't causing them any extra pain other than falling onto the ground. ;D

TECHKLEC 3 years ago
I think you may be referring to hip dysplasia. That is a genetic malformation of the hip joint that is graded in degrees of severity and usually gets worse as a dog ages. It is painful and causes arthritis in the joint, frequently inhibiting a dogs ability to get up from a sitting position, and or move around, again depending on severity of the condition.

althought labradors look nice the are one of the most messed with in terms breeding and therefor labradors have loads of genetic diseases and abnormalities. its a shame to think what we have done just to breed a nice looking dog
thestalkinghead 3 years ago 2
They're so messed up now because of irresponsible breeding. Labs are so popular now, and that is causing a lot of inbreeding and all that to keep up with the demand for them. Breeders test for genetic issues and won't breed the ones that carry the genes...so you can still get a good lab (and trust me, they are awesome and worth it). Just know where you lab is coming from, that's all! :D
j1drummer 3 years ago 2
maybe its evolution. A mutation so the animals dont were them selves out. As a dog has never been so happy to excersize as much as they do by being with humans. Kinda like a damper. Evolution isnt cutting down on thepower they have so it took a jump in the form of a mutation/disese...
kenope 3 years ago
I can't believe how flip these comments are, and "don't worry about it?" So a test is available, as an ex breeder, I know that doesn't mean people will test. Why do you think there is such outrage about Puppy Mills, Back Yard breeders, and ignorant folks that just want "Muffy" to have a litter before she's fixed, or more when they find out they can make some money. Poor dog, it has such a happy playful spirit, it just doesn't seem fair for an active, exuberant breed like a lab to be so hindered.

If a third of labs carry this faulty gene why is the disorder not well known?
spentfromnz 3 years ago
It's because it's most likely recessive, so it requires two of the faulty genes to show the disease where as a third carry only one of the deffective gene and therefore not all have the disease.
mamshmam 3 years ago
Yeah but still, 1 in 3 means a 1 in 9 chance of both parents having the gene. Statistically speaking one quarter of the litter would get the gene from both parents, meaning 1 out of every 36 labradors should have this condition. Considering labs are one of the most popular breeds out there, that would means a lot of dogs should have this.
spentfromnz 3 years ago
Kind of the next generation of dog breeding....
There are a whole lot of inbred traits in dogs (especially the 'pure bred' ones) that could be removed, or at least lessened, this way.
As far as genetics goes, I find this a reassuring application of the technology. It has obvious benefits and no down side.
Cyborg super-wolves with cobra venom and infra-red vision are still some way off, thankfully.

Well, at least we are seeing the start of genetic screening of unwanted traits in our breeding attempts. In my opinion it should be mandatory. If we can prevent the suffering of animals by better breeding practices, I'm all for it.

tjmac7 > Telling the parents is a medical responsibility.
The decision on what to do about it is a parental one, but people need to have the information when making an informed choice.
As for Dogs, spaying is the kindest response, puppies deserve an equal chance at life, not a life of living with disability.

Exactly.
PenItFoMeYo 3 years ago
yes,I think so =/ we do that already. its illegal to married your cousin =D but on a serious note. a gene that if both the parents have, the child will be super sensitive to light, with that disability, the kid will have to be under the shade his/her whole life, home schooled, and constantly monitored, if parents knew this in advance, I doubt they willing want a life like that for their child.

if they have identified the gene, surely they can either remove or treat it?
Richona 3 years ago
"Removing" a gene (allele) is never a solution. Replacing it could be--but so far that has not been medically successful.
Treat it? Not as simple as it sounds. The job of a gene (in a cell), is to make a certain protein, at a certain--variable--rate, sent to a certain place (often staying within the cell itself). So far, also, accomplishing this has been of limited medical success. Best known example: insulin. It SAVES lives--but insulin dependence is still an early-senescence sentence.
