Nutrition is important to us here at Winsome Aussie. Daily vitamins and wild Samon oil are just the beginning of the care that we provide in their daily routine. All our Aussies are fed a 5-star diet, because of this we require that all puppies be kept on one of the 5-star feeds that is recommended by Dog Food Advisors.

NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MULTI DRUG RESISITANCE (MDR1)

MDR1 is the abbreviated name of a gene called Multi-Drug Resistance 1.  A mutation of this gene causes sensitivity to Ivermectin and a number of other drugs.  Dogs with the mutation will react to those drugs.   Whether a dog reacts depends on the dosage of the drug.  A dog may not react to very low doses, as with the amount of Ivermectin found in heart worm products.  Typical doses of a variety of medications will cause reactions in dogs with two copies of the mutation, but some drugs – most notably several chemotherapy agents – can cause reactions in dogs with only one.  Dogs with this mutation have a transport defect—the drug goes into their brains, fails to be transported out, and builds up to toxic levels.  This causes serious neurological problems including seizures and sometimes death.

Testing for the MDR1 gene is easy, we recommend Paw Print Genetics – The Definitive Resource for Canine Genetic Health, prior to administering any of the drugs in question.
