M Thanks to supporters like you, _we've taken a significant step toward the eventual prevention of the devastating condition commonly known as bloat_ (http://support.caninehealthfoundation.org/site/R?i=1nXjqX08rxQ3OfPvZbBZkg) . CHF is pleased to announce the approval of two research grants which will work to establish the causes and pre-dispositions for gastricdilatation-volvulus (GDV), or bloat. These studies will provide the insight necessary to one day prevent the condition. We made a quick _video explaining the Bloat Initiative grants_ (http://support.caninehealthfoundation.org/site/R?i=gJZbQO1RxJBxeoZ9n-yM2A) selected. Take a few minutes to learn why these research projects have so much potential to help prevent bloat in the future. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2012.
