Jean
Dodd's
Rabies Challenge Fund Charitable Trust
World-renown vaccine research scientist and practicing veterinarian,
Dr. W. Jean Dodds of California, and pet vaccine disclosure
advocate, Kris L. Christine of Maine, have established
The Rabies Challenge Fund to raise money to fund a 7 year
rabies vaccine challenge study in the United States. Please
donate to help all our dogs!
Some big news for The Rabies Challenge Fund Charitable
Trust: thanks to graphic designer, Andrea Brin, it now
has its own
website at:
http://www.rabieschallengefund.org/
The
other big news is
that Dr. Ronald Schultz of the University of Wisconsin
School of
Veterinary Medicine has volunteered his time to conduct
the 5 and 7
year canine rabies challenge studies. If you recall,
Dr. Schultz's
research forms part of the scientific base for the
American Animal
Hospital Association's 2003 and 2006 Canine Vaccine
Guidelines.
The
December 2006/January 2007 (Vol. 8, Issue 6) Animal
Wellness
Magazine features an article by Ann Brightman on the
RCF entitled,
How Often Does He REALLY Need a Rabies Shot? and Get
Out Your
Wallets, Rabies Challenge Fund a Reality by Nancy Freedman

Since
last year, Dr. W. Jean Dodds, of Hemopet and Co-Trustee of
The Rabies Challenge Fund Charitable Trust, and
her staff have
donated their time to ensure these vital studies
are conducted for
the benefit of our canine companions.
We hope
you'll join us in this effort, too!
Thanks!
