Support for owners of dogs with Lafora's Disease

Post date: Feb 13, 2010 8:24:47 PM

A new website called "Lafora Dogs" has been launched to provide help, information and support to owners of Miniature Wire Dachshunds whose dogs suffer from Lafora's Disease.

It is believed that approx. 5% of MWHDs are affected, but until more extensive screening is carried out, this cannot be confirmed.

The site founder, Gill Key, says the support group aims to be a positive force for those owners who need answers themselves, and are keen that other people and dogs will not suffer in the future.
