Thanks for the heads up! Now we have to fight for the rights of dogs even harder because the labs will be wanting all they can get to test and mutulate. OMG does it never end. Also there will be more against adopting in case of cross contaminating.

Yes most will ignore that genetically linked is not the same as communicable.
