DNA PROFILES  and 

ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATIONS USING FROZEN SEMEN

Some concern has been expressed recently that DNA Profiles are required for foreign sires whose frozen semen is used in artificial inseminations.

Please be advised that KUSA does NOT require DNA Profiles of sires used in frozen semen Artificial Inseminations, irrespective of the date the semen was collected, provided it is a single sire breeding.

Dual sire breedings whether natural matings or frozen semen always require parentage testing of all puppies using DNA profiles of both possible sires.
