What is CERF testing?
CERF is short for Canine Eye Registration Foundation. This is organization does testing for specific canine genetic defects involving the eyes, like Canine Retinal Atrophy. A local ACVO (American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists) certified Ophthalmologist could help you in getting your dog’s eyes certified. If you have any detailed questions or if you want to find a local Ophthalmologist, you should contact CERF. You can also find additional information about how to read the CERF number on a registration certificate on our AKC Certificate section.
