The DDBSA Breeder's Education Committee would like to encourage our breeders to participate in the research below. This research is of particular interest to any breed with a restrictive gene pool as it can help us understand the nuances of heredity.

Meet Heather Huson, Ph.D.

Dr. Huson’s research focuses on using modern genomic technology and bioinformatics to determine genetic variants. She has a particular interest in identifying the effects of natural and artificial selection on populations and applying genomic information to improve animal health, well-being, and management. She has worked across a variety of species, with a main focus on dairy cattle and working dog genetics.

Dr. Huson is working with Sayaka Mochizuki, a veterinary student from the Royal Veterinary College in London who is attending the Cornell University Veterinary Investigator Program. Mochizuki’s project involves asking the public to participate in a survey that will help gain a better understanding of individual preferences for dog breed aesthetics.

The Riney Canine Health Center welcomes all to participate in this research, by completing the survey.

The most powerful, simple and trusted way to gather experience data. Start your journey to experience management and try a free account today.

Did you know that if you have a pacemaker, you can put it in your will to have your pacemaker removed and donated to a dog in need after you pass?
Pacemakers cannot be reused in another human, but they can be donated and used for dogs with cardiac issues. Upon removal the pacemaker would be delivered to the vet of your choice (Vet Cardiologist normally) and it saves the dog's owner from paying for the device. The savings of not paying for the actual pacemaker may mean the difference between being able to afford the treatment or not.
If you have a pacemaker or know someone with one, please consider this last act of kindness for our furry friends.

Tara, a miniature schnauzer, received a donated Medtronic pacemaker to treat her life-threatening heart condition.

Received this bit of incredible news from Sonja Tompkins today.
What an amazing advancement for treating cancerous tumors in our beloved pets.

New medicine has been proven to get rid of cancer in animals like dogs and horses and one of the places using it on a regular basis is right here in Fort Wayne.

Nationals is right around the corner! Are you guys ready? I am starting to work on 2025 which will be in Fort Wayne, IN. Yes I said 2025!! Great show site with ringside crating, a large ring and club tables right in front of our crating.

So we need to be thinking about 2026 which will head back to the West. We need a show chair for this show so if you are interested let me know. I would love to have whoever takes on this job to work with me for 2025 so you know what to expect. I would also love site (preferably indoors) in Utah and Colorado. Email me at [email protected]. Take care--Angie Reed

FYI: As I went to apply for AKC registration for the bitty-bits there was a notice everyone needs to know.
The AKC will not be accepting any transfers from the Russian Kennel Federation because of the war in Ukraine. Hopefully, there won’t be a war much longer, but until that time be aware that you won’t be able to xfer a RKF dog to AKC.

Last September we lost long time member and my very good friend Val Barr. This year's Nationals will be dedicated to Val's memory. I will have a memory book there for people to write a message or memory which will be given to her husband Rick. If you cannot attend Nationals please feel free to email me any message or memory you would like to have in the book. My email is [email protected].
Thanks, Angie Reed
