If you have a Curly with Laryngeal Paralysis, you might want to participate in the University of Wisconsin study to try to find the genetic marker for the disease. 

​

Dogs affected with Laryngeal Paralysis from both the U.S. and Canada are invited to participate. You don't need to live near the university to participate--they will send you a DNA collection kit.

We are beginning to make changes to the site, including adding MEMBER ONLY content. That means you will have to sign up to be a member of this website to read certain pages and content. There will be no charge for being a member.

​

A Planet Curly Members group will be started on Facebook so you get notification when member only pages are published. This will probably be a private group. When I approve you as a member of this site, I will also add you to the Facebook private group.

​

Hope you are enjoying the good ol' Fourth of July holiday.
