The University of Florida is no longer processing DM  Flash Tests as of 
today, March 15, 2009, for Degenerative  Myelopathy! 
Dr Clemmons' lab is being shut down as soon as he finishes the  current 
research for the GSDCA. The University of Florida feels there is  more money to 
be 
made in other areas. Please sign our petition to keep the DM  Flash Test 
operational, as it is desperately needed for DM research  to move forward. The 
knowledge gained from the DM Flash test is  irreplaceable! While there is 
another 
DNA Test, the SOD1 that has been  developed by Dr Joan Coates for DM, that 
test was created through research on  Boxers and Corgis! Corgi/Boxer DM is NOT 
the same disease as German Shepherd  Dog DM! Only 4 German Shepherds spines 
were 
used in their research, to the  hundred plus Corgi/Boxers!! Early test data 
on the German Shepherd Dog indicates that not all German Shepherd Dogs with 
Degenerative  Myelopathy even possess the mutated SOD1 gene for which the other 
test is  screening!
