In Florida. They can maybe buy us a year or TWO. Having lost Bud in less than 4 months, two years would be a miracle.... They are saying it might become a viable and affordable option.

It matters to the one you save.

This would be a miracle!!! My beautiful Mariah passed a bit over a month after being diagnosed.

I want to see the price. Can they do it at a cost the common person can afford. We'd all have to move to Florida.

The article said affordable. However their idea of affordable and ours is probably vastly different.

I'm waiting to see how affordable. I have lost so many with DCM. It kills me.

Such a great project! Thanks to the Doberman Pinscher Club of America for funding this and to all the staff at the University of Florida who are carrying out this study. In addition to our dogs, just think of the implication this could have in human medicine if it is successful.

Currently part of my treasured family and helping to make life fun and busy:

 

Hunter, the chocolate Labradeagle (or Beaglador)

Terra, the tall, gorgeous red Doberwoman
