History: Opmeer et al. (2023): "... the first hereditary disease identified in the [Nederlandse Kooikerhondje] breed was hereditary necrotizing myelopathy [Mandigers et al. 1993]. Cases were seen as of 1962, and eradication of hereditary necrotizing myelopathy by selective breeding only became possible after the discovery of the causative mutation (Mandigers and Leegwater, unpublished data) in 2015."
