Editor’s Message
Welcome to the December/ January issue of the Skywriter! Hoping everyone had a great Holiday and a very Happy New Year! I apologize that this issue is coming out late. I had several unforeseen events happen all at the same time, the death of a close family member that required me to go to Florida and one of my dogs tearing the cruciate ligaments in both stifles, and dealing with the first of two surgeries. Better late than never though!
Again, if anyone comes across any items of interest please forward it to me for our newsletter.
Sincerely,
Leslie

New site dedicated to opposing PAWS -- 10-12-05
In May, the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), the Doris Day Animal League (DDAL), and our AKC sent out simultaneous press releases announcing the filing of S. 1139, the Pet Animal Welfare Statute. AKC's decision to team up with animal rights agencies was made without consulting its board of directors or other animal organizations that will be affected should the bill pass
PAWS is bad for breeders, bad for the public, and bad for pets. Since no one has been able to convince the AKC that it has made a serious error in supporting it, people who love animals and believe that in-home breeding and rescuing are important to preserve are banding together to fight this bill without AKC. Over 355 animal-focused organizations have taken official positions opposing PAWS. The 38 AKC recognized breed parent clubs who formally oppose PAWS represent 61.2% of the dogs registered by AKC. New clubs are being added to the list nearly every week.
Please read the articles to the left, visit the sites we've linked, and join the fight. The first step is to write your own congressmen. Go to (close the pop-up window hiding the site!) and fill in your zip code to start.
Editors Note: This was from the website It is a starting point for anyone who wants to try and help or even just to understand why so many people are in an uproar over the PAWS legislation.
Canine Epilepsy Study
I'm writing to solicit participation in a canine epilepsy research project that will result in people being able to test their Labrador Retriever breeding stock and avoid producing this affliction in the future. The research is being done at Health Gene Laboratory, in Toronto Canada, by Dr. Melekhovets.
The research so far has resulted in identifying the gene responsible for epilepsy, but more work is needed to examine the different gene mutations that produce different forms of the disease and to help perfect the test for identifying carriers. The researchers have
determined that the mode of inheritance is by a simple recessive, i.e., both parents must be carriers for offspring to be affected by the disease. For anyone who has had to deal with an epileptic dog, this is a
truly thrilling breakthru and a wonderful opportunity to contribute while getting more information about your own dogs.
Dr. Melekhovets is seeking blood samples from Labradors who are affected by epilepsy (with medical diagnosis or with 2 or more years of seizures) and also samples from littermates and parents of such dogs. If a blood sample is not possible, a semen sample would also work and does
not require any special precautions in shipment, since they just want the DNA, not the sperm per se. The shipment cost will be borne by Health Gene, and the analysis will be done for free until they are ready to put the test on the market. You might have to pay your vet for the blood
draw(s) but he/she might want to contribute to science by doing it for free.
In the past, breeders have occasionally used dogs for breeding who later developed epilepsy, thus producing whole litters of carriers. In the near future, we'll be able to determine in advance if a dog is affected, even if it hasn't had any symptoms, or a carrier. Hopefully the research will also tell us why sometimes a dog produces just one epileptic offspring among many. Down the road,
we'll be able to choose to eradicate the affliction by eliminating carriers from our breeding programs, or to avoid producing any afflicted dogs, just like we can now do with PRA.
To participate in the research, please contact Dr Melekhovets directly for instructions on shipping. His email address is dr.melekhovets@.
I guess I need to put a disclaimer here. I dont represent HealthGene or have any stock in it. I learned of the project earlier this year from a small article in HealthGene's online newsletter, and arranged for samples from 2 epileptic dogs. Dr Melekhovets phoned a week or so ago with the news of their progress and offered the free shipping and testing to expand their sample.

Won’t it be wonderful when we can test our dogs to be able to avoid producing this awful disease!
HELP WANTED:
We are looking for volunteers to help out at our upcoming health clinic on February 19th. (see flyer in this issue.) If you would like to volunteer a little of your time, please contact Donna Forte at dforte@
Diamond Pet Foods Product Recall
Diamond pet foods issued a recall of some of their products when they were found to contain high levels of aflatoxin a chemical naturally produced by growth of the fungus Aspergillus flavus on corn or other crops.. Unfortunately a number of dogs died before this was discovered. The following is from the Diamond Website:
Based on analytical sampling of finished product lots retained by Diamond Pet Foods, the company has been able to narrow products affected, along with their “Best By” dates.
Testing of more than 2,700 finished product samples conducted by independent laboratories confirms that only Diamond Maintenance Dog and Diamond Premium Adult Dog with “Best By” dates of April 3, April 4, April 5 and April 11, 2007 are potentially toxic. Test results for all other products have not been toxic.

Symptoms of Illness
Symptoms of potential illness in dogs may be difficult to discern, but include:
· Loss of appetite
· Yellow whites of the eyes, yellow gums, yellow in the belly or areas where hair is very thin
· Severe, persistent vomiting combined with bloody diarrhea
· Discolored urine
· Fever
A Focus On Aflatoxin Contamination:
Aflatoxin contamination damages human health, animal health, the food supply, and world markets. Researchers are actively looking for methods to control aflatoxin contamination in susceptible crops. Classical plant disease prevention methods and routine technologies for controlling plant pathogens have generally been unsuccessful. Cooperative efforts to establish control strategies began in 1988 with the start of the annual Aflatoxin Elimination Workshop. The latest published conference report, Aflatoxin/Fumonisin Workshop 2000 can be found on the USDA/ARS website
|Aflatoxin Research Areas: |
|Fungal ecology and development of biological control agents |
|Crop resistance through conventional breeding or genetic engineering techniques |
|Crop management and fungal relationship |
|Processing and new methods of sampling and toxin detection in crops |
|Natural compounds that inhibit fungal growth and influence aflatoxin synthesis |
|FDA Action Levels for Aflatoxins |
|Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has established action levels for aflatoxin present in food or feed to protect human and|
|animal health.* |
|Levels must not exceed: |
|20 ppb - For corn and other grains intended for immature animals (including immature poultry) and for dairy animals, or |
|when its destination is not known; |
|20 ppb - For animal feeds, other than corn or cottonseed meal; |
|100 ppb - For corn and other grains intended for breeding beef cattle, breeding swine, or mature poultry; |
|200 ppb - For corn and other grains intended for finishing swine of 100 pounds or greater; |
|300 ppb - For corn and other grains intended for finishing (i.e., feedlot) beef cattle and for cottonseed meal intended for|
|beef cattle, swine or poultry. |
|General Facts About Aflatoxins |
|Aflatoxins are naturally occurring toxins that are metabolic byproducts of fungi, Aspergillus flavus, and Aspergillus |
|parasiticus, which grow on many food crops under favorable conditions. |
|Aflatoxin is an mycotoxin literally means poison from a fungi and are named on the basis of the fungus that produces |
|them, thus “Aflatoxin” uses the “A” for Aspergillus and “fla” for the species “flavus” along with the word toxin. |
|Adverse impact on animal and human health with acute toxicological effects such as liver damage and cancer can occur. |
|The major types of aflatoxins are B1, B2, G1, G2, and M1, with aflatoxin B1 being the most toxic, and usually |
|predominant. Aflatoxin B1 is a very potent carcinogen to humans and animals. |
|Aflatoxins can invade the food supply at anytime during production, processing, transport or storage. |
|Conditions that contribute to fungal growth and the production of aflatoxins are: a hot and humid climate, kernel |
|moisture, favorable substrate characteristics, and factors that decrease the host plant’s immunity (insect damage, poor |
|fertilization, and drought). |
|Food and food crops most prone to contamination are corn and corn products, cottonseed, peanuts and peanut products, tree|
|nuts (pistachio nuts, pecans, walnuts, Brazil nuts) and milk. |
|Effect on Animal Health |
|Aflatoxins are both teratogenic and carcinogenic, the liver is the principal organ affected in most species. Aflatoxin B1 is |
|considered a carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. |
|Lactating mothers excrete aflatoxins in the milk thereby directly affecting the nursing animal. |
|All species of animals are susceptible, however susceptibility to aflatoxicosis depends on the species, age, and nutritional |
|status of the animal. Young members of the species are usually more susceptible to the acute effects of the disease. |
|Adverse effects on animals may be expressed as liver damage, gastrointestinal dysfunction, anemia, reduced feed consumption, |
|reduced reproductivity, immune suppression, decreased milk and egg production and overall retarded growth and development. |
|Effect on Human Health |
|Unlike third-world countries, where large outbreaks have occurred from the lack of regulatory measures and high exposure |
|levels, the U.S. has no reported human outbreaks of acute aflatoxicosis. |
|The clinical syndrome of aflatoxicosis is characterized by abdominal pain, vomiting, pulmonary edema, convulsions, coma, |
|liver damage, and death. |
|Aflatoxin B1 is positively associated with liver cell cancer, supported by epidemiological studies done in Asia and Africa. |
|Susceptibility to aflatoxicosis may be influenced by age, sex, nutritional status, health, and the level and duration of |
|exposure. |
|Long-term exposure to low levels of aflatoxins in the food supply may have adverse effects over time to humans. |
|Humans can become sick by consuming unsafe levels of aflatoxin contaminated food and food products from grains, nuts and |
|milk. |
Impact on Agriculture
• According to the FAO, each year millions of tons of foodstuffs are lost as a direct result of mycotoxin infestation of the world’s food grain crops.
• Stricter regulatory limits (lowering threshold action levels) have been imposed on commodities of many countries intended for use as food and feed, greatly impacting world export markets.
• A significant problem for the U.S. feed industry is that corn contaminated with more than 20 parts per billion of aflatoxins (1 oz in 3,125 tons) is no longer fit for the feed of immature animals or milk producing animal.
• Within a few days of eating aflatoxin contaminated feeds, there is a significant reduction in the milk yield of lactating cows.
• Aflatoxins can cause great economic losses of livestock through impaired animal health.
