  • ​PRA - HELP NEEDED !

 

DO YOU OWN A PRA AFFECTED PAPILLON, -or do you know someone that does ?
If you do, Dr Simon Peterson-Jones and his research team need your help.

 

They cannot complete their goal of developing a breed specific test for PRA in Papillons without an adequate number of quality samples (blood). The more samples they have, the faster their research will progress. Papillon owners everywhere (in the world) are needed to submit samples  so that this valuable PRA research can continue.

   While Papillons are generally a healthy breed, there are known genetic problems that affect

   some individuals.

   The goal of this Committee is to enlighten the breeding community and the general

   public about the types of problems that can occur, in the hopes we can all work

   together to reduce their incidence.
