Because Johnny's, Rio's, and Vegas's sire
Ch Korella Royal Command "Dallas"
(import Australia) is AFFECTED by CEA
though he obtained a CERF NORMAL
CERTIFICATE when we used him, all his offspring
will be genetic carriers and may only be bred to
DNA tested normal Border Collies. 
Rio's and Vegas's mom, Daily is Optigen DNA tested normal.  We hope that breeders and fanciers will be
sensible in using this information to breed
wisely, still striving for sound, typey dogs,
and not use this information as a way to
destroy one another. 
Email us for more information.
