ACL research

A few years back I had ACL surgery done on one of my dogs. At that time, there was a research study going on the possible hereditary nature and I sent in blood and tissue samples. I cannot remember who was doing the research. A friend of mine has a dog with a ruptured ACL and also wants to send in samples. Does anyone know who this was doing the research? Please e-mail me with any information if possible. Thanks

Re: ACL research

You need to google CCL not ACL in dogs. Here is a linkin which may help you recall the study you mentioned.

Re: ACL research

Thanks for the info but I had already found that site. I am looking for one that is requesting samples - I believe I sent the previous information to a university in Pennsylvania but haven't found the information yet.
