Cynthia Sloan DVM, ACVR who specializes in diagnostic imaging will be doing kidney ultrasounds for $65.

Nancy Bromberg VMD and Simon Petersen-Jones DVM will be evaluating eyes, CERF & OM screening both for just $35.

Dr. Bromberg is an experienced boarded ophthalmologist. Dr. Simon Petersen-Jones is a very highly credentialed ophthalmogist and geneticist at Michigan State University Vet School. He has been conducting Ocular Melanosis research funded by CTCA Foundation. He needs a few more samples from OM normal old cairns to complete his isolation of the OM gene. Therefore, the CTCA Foundation will cover the $35 cost of all cairns 12 yrs and older that participate in these CERF/OM exams. Since a cairn needs to be examined when they are truly old to know if they are OM normal, this is a huge opportunity to check the status of your bloodline. Confidentiality will be maintained.
