Partnering with the OFA, the NCA has launched an online comprehensive breed health survey. The purpose of this survey is to confidentially gather data which will provide a current base of statistics for making decisions to address diseases and other health issues which are occurring in the Newfoundland breed.

The Charitable Trust Management Board (CTMB), Research Advisory Committee and Health and Longevity Committee worked together with the OFA to craft this scientific survey based on the online survey results contributed by over 1000 Newfoundland owners in 2010.

The CTMB is charged with reviewing proposed studies through the Research Advisory Committee and also funding those studies beneficial to the Newfoundland with funds raised through Newfoundland Health Challenge. The future health of our breed depends on early identification of health problems and then funding research in those specific areas. Your input is vital to insuring that our health and research dollars are spent wisely. Take the Survey Now!

February 25, 2011 - NCA Trust Announces Newfoundland Endowment Fund

For the last decade the Charitable Trust Management Board (CTMB) has been known for its thoughtful allocation of your donations to aid Newfoundlands in Rescue, Health and Education initiatives. The CTMB now moves into a new phase of fund management with the establishment of the Newfoundland Endowment Fund within the NCA Charitable Trust. Initial funding was made possible by recent contributions from the estates of two previous NCA members and an anonymous donation.

The long-term goal of the CTMB is to grow the Endowment Fund to become a source of  income that can support Rescue, Health and Education issues. “From the early beginnings of the NCA Donations committee to the NCA Charitable Trust, the goal was the formation of a fund to be a long term source of dollars to fund research, rescue and health education. This goal has been fulfilled with the creation of the endowment Fund” said Clyde Dunphy DVM, CTMB Chairman.

A major benefit of the Endowment Fund is that Newfoundland lovers can now include a gift in their Will or Estate planning towards these good works. Other donations of monies or Newfoundland memorabilia or collections may also be donated to the Trust to be included in the Endowment Fund.

Like a Newf puppy, who quickly grows to an adult, the Newfoundland Endowment Fund will also grow. Please consider including the Newfoundland Endowment Fund in your Estate Planning.

For more information on the many ways you can help grow the Newfoundland Endowment Fund, please visit the Giving Center online or contact Andy Zinsmeyer.  The NCA Charitable Trust is a 501 c (3) public benefit corporation, and donations are fully tax deductible.

podcastThis week on Genome Barks, Eddie Dziuk, The Chief Operating Officer of the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals talks with Erika Werne about the Canine Health Information Center. Established in 2001, CHIC is the joint venture between the AKC Canine Health Foundation and OFA that serves as a central database of health information as well as a DNA Repository. At the North Carolina State Breeders' Symposium jointly sponsored by the American Kennel Club and the AKC Canine Health Foundation, Mr. Dziuk discusses the pros and cons of the two methods of DNA collection, exactly how the "recommended tests" become recommended in the first place, as well as the "gold standard" of genetic tests, and how it will impact breeding decisions.
