TNS stands for Trapped Neutrophil Syndrome, an hereditary disease where the bone marrow produces neutrophils (white cells) but is unable to effectively release them into the bloodstream. Affected puppies have an impaired immune system and will eventually die from infections they cannot fight. |
Trapped Neutrophil Syndrome TNS |
CL is often referred to as a disease that only impacts Australasian Border Collies. This is not true. We can only speculate that CL was believed to be associated with the Australasian Border Collies because CL was originally identified and diagnosed in Australia more than 25 years ago. However, since that time, in the United States, the Texas A&M University reported that it had diagnosed CL in several Border Collies located in Texas. Although the University never released the identity of those dogs, this occurred several years prior to the importation of any Australasian dogs to the United States. Therefore, these dogs had to be from American and/or British lines. Approximately 10 years ago, a Border Collie located in Great Britain died of CL. A post-mortem examination confirmed the diagnosis. Again, the identity of the dog was never released. However, the dog was known to be from 100% British lines. |
