DNA SAMPLES NEEDED





           Elizabeth McNiel, DVM PhD, who is the researcher working on the gastric cancer
           project that CCCI members are participating in, is in need of DNA samples from
           our Chows.
           They need to be from dogs that are 11 years and over and have not been diagnosed
           with Gastric Carcinoma. She would prefer blood samples, but will take cheek
           swabs. Anyone that is about to get any bloodwork done on their Chows, please
           have a little extra drawn and sent to Dr. McNiel.   Thank You!
