Re: info verifacation assistance.

Note: Through out the site at www.akc.org I could not find pet urn subject matter and was looking to verify from AKC the status on EI products as part of my DD.

If anyone has the time or is semi retired and vested here, please feel free to skim thru the data below to see where one might find the person or persons at AKC that could verify where EI business related info is kept, so that we can see it, as EI shareholders. tia..

According to the most recent AKC Canine Health Foundation survey of national breed clubs, the top ten diseases are cancer, epilepsy, thyroid disease, hip dysplasia, allergies, heart disease, progressive retinal atrophy, cataracts, patellar luxation, and reproduction disorders. Since 1995, more than 240 grants have been approved for funding, totaling more than $12 million allocated to research. For more information visit our website at www.akcchf.org.
