NCA Rescue has deep commitments of both. People – Rescue volunteers provide foster care, transportation, counseling, fundraising, and many other essential functions. Financial support – Generous donors provide the means to sustain this vital function of the Newfoundland Club of America Charitable Trust – Newfoundland Rescue. Rescue workers cultivate relationships with veterinarians, boarding facilities, groomers, animal control officers and even puppy mills, in order to be prepared for quick action when needed. Recently a team of NCA Rescue workers tapped all of those resources to accept two male Newfs from a county Animal Control Officer who convinced a dog producer to surrender the Newfs. Transportation was arranged to the boarding facility and veterinary care and grooming was scheduled. Donations for memorials, bequests, and added to dues renewals, etc. underwrite these Rescue services. Thank YOU for your wonderful support for NCA Rescue.

This system was utilized to carry out a clinical trial applying histotripsy therapy to the tumor in client-owned dogs with osteosarcoma. The investigators have successfully delivered histotripsy treatment to the tumor in all study dogs with osteosarcoma. Evaluations of the histotripsy-treated areas of tumor confirm effective tumor ablation. Preliminary observations of the evaluations on the immune response to histotripsy suggest a potential activation of some immune cells after histotripsy treatment. These immune evaluations are still ongoing.

SUMMARY: Subvalvular aortic stenosis (SAS) is one of the most common congenital heart defects in dogs. SAS leads to heart remodeling (physical and functional changes in the heart), cardiac arrhythmias and frequently results in sudden death. No current medical therapy prolongs the lifespan of dogs with severe SAS beyond 4 to 5 years of age. Researchers will conduct a clinical trial to investigate whether the drug rapamycin can reduce the life-threatening heart remodeling associated with SAS. The team hopes this novel therapy may reduce disease severity and improve outcomes and quality of life for dogs with this devastating disease.
