Samoyed Hereditary Glomerulopathy is a genetically linked disease that is carried by females and only severely affects males. Male dogs who have the disease first appear healthy, but after 3 months symptoms begin to appear and worsen with time. These dogs usually die by 15 months from renal failure. Female carriers may exhibit mild symptoms of the disease, but these are not fatal.

Samoyed Hereditary Glomerulopathy is caused by an X-linked dominant faulty allele, and only severely affects male dogs (renal failure).
