I am helping with sample collection for a few projects being run by the Van Andel Institute in Grand Rapids, MI.
I need DNA from:
1. Pointing labs
2. Any purebred dogs with cancer
3. springers with "rage" episodes
This is confidential and free of charge. I can send out collection kits of simple cheek swabs anywhere in the US or Canada.
Here is a link to their cancer project.

Feel free to pass my contact info to any dog people that may be interested!
Any questions?
Thanks,
Sarah Shull, DVM
