Copper Toxicosis (CT) is an inherited autosomal recessive disorder in which a dog’s system accumulates excess copper instead of excreting it naturally. CT affects several dog breeds and can result in severe damage to the liver and—eventually—liver disease, failure, and possibly death.

DDC Veterinary has validated an accurate and reliable genetic CT test for Labrador Retrievers, Labradoodles, and Doberman Pinschers to help breeders avoid producing CT at-risk offspring.
