We have added a couple exciting additions this year. We will be offering 4DX testing with results in 8-10 minutes and for Golden Retrievers Only we are taking blood DNA samples for the Golden Retriever Foundations Health Study.

We are also accepting PayPal payments for the clinic :) You must send via Friends & Family or you will be charged an additional fee. You will also need to put your full name in the comments so I know who sent the money. If you paypal me I will also need your clinic registration form emailed to me.

Just a note that the past 2 clinics we have had a lot of people register for OFA xrays without sedation but when attempted the dogs were extremely uncooperative and some ended up needing to be sedated. This really messes up the clinic schedule and causes everyone's appointments to be pushed back, which isn't fair to them. It also is not fair to the Vet doing xrays to have to try and wrestle a dog into position for xrays. So this year if you choose no sedation xrays and your dog is uncooperative resulting in sedation needed, you will be charged an additional $200, so please bring funds to cover this just in case.

Also I need to have everyone fill out the Cardio, OFA, GRF DNA, & PennHip forms ahead of time!!! The OFA & Penn Hip forms must be emailed to me upon registration so that we can get your dog into the computer. If you purchase Embark Genetic Tests please create an account on Embark Vet website prior to the clinic to streamline the process.

I look forward to seeing everyone again this year!!

Sincerely,

Amy Herbert
