Update on Inherited Canine Cardiac Diseases and Overview of Upcoming Zenalpha Clinical Trial Opportunity at Purdue

Our knowledge of inherited and acquired canine cardiac disease continues to evolve pretty rapidly. Since our beloved Golden Retrievers are unfortunately, not exempt from problems in this space, it makes sense as a breeder and owner to stay abreast of new knowledge.

Fortunately, not far from many of our homes, we have one of the top veterinary schools in the United States. As a leading school they are constantly evaluating new tools and approaches for clinicians. clinical trial evaluating echocardiogram effects on a next generation reversible sedative, Zenalpha will start soon. This trial provides an opportunity to advance important knowledge of the already approved drug and complete some important inherited disease testing at a significantly reduced cost at Purdue.

Annual Awards Meeting
2024-02-11 12:30 - 16:00
It’s that time of year again when we honor all our hard-working members and their ac-complishments. It takes many hours of hard work and dedication to earn the titles.

Please join us in honoring all the members who have worked this past year and have the battle scars and amusing tales to prove it. For new AND old members AND guests it’s a chance to see the lovely perpetual trophies that are donated by club members or WRGRC gathered together. And, if dog training is all new, come and see what you and your dog can do! Everyone started at the beginning sometime!

Plan to arrive around 12:30 p.m. and we’ll start the buffet at 1:00 p.m. This will give people a chance to mingle. Because our meeting falls on the same day as the BIG football game this year, our decorations will incorporate a football-party theme.You are encouraged to bring food to share which is customary for that type of event. The club will provide plates,plastic utensils, and napkins—no ham. Bring your own soft drinks or bottled

water since everyone has their favorites. A brief business meeting will be called to order after lunch, followed by the awards program. The program will be finished in plenty of time for you to attend other game-related events.

Come join the fun! Wear attire supporting your favorite team, if you like.

Awards Chairman Steve Ripley, assisted by Carole Mueller and Chris Patteson
