ESCC's Vice President and resident Veterinarian, Dr. B.J. Parsons has offered to provide attendees to our April 18, 2026 Field Day and our July 8-12, 2026 Regional Specialty Event the opportunity to contribute to the OFA DNA Repository. The cost is minimal ($20) and the benefits are far reaching as detailed above. This is an altruistic, voluntary action. All we need to make this available is a list of participants so that Dr. Parsons can bring the required blood sampling tools needed to complete data collection and also packaging tools for forwarding the samples to OFA.
If you are interested in participating in this worthy endeavor, please email or text Webmaster, Patty McBride at:
828-450-7620
Additional details will be provided as to times and specific locations for data collections as we develop a list of interested participants. Feel free to contact Patty with additional questions about this opportunity.
