How do I tell if my dog has globoid cell leukodystrophy?

Signs of the disease usually appear between 1 and 5 months of age. Affected puppies show uncoordinated movements, tremors, and loss of normal muscle reflexes. As the condition progresses, blindness and paralysis develop. The GALC gene mutation responsible for this condition can be identified with a DNA test. Schedule a vet visit to get a clear picture. Our vets are also available for a consult if you want guidance before the appointment.
