Ta- tell me more about, uh, there's a Canine Health Discovery of the Year Award

AwardYes, this is really fun.

Um, so last year was our inaugural award, and it's gonna be an, a, an award every year and, um, the deadline's coming up at the end of April here.

So what we do is we ask people, veterinarians, faculty at vet schools, that sort of thing, to nominate their peers and be bold and say, "You know, this discovery came out in the last year, and I think 10 years from now it will have been a game changer.

This is, like, what we were waiting for in this field." And, you know, it's a short application, and pitch it to us, like, why is this important for canine health? And then we take those applications, and we distribute them amongst a panel of experts around the world in various areas of expertise in canine health, and we decide, you know, what is, what is the big discovery this year that's changing canine health? Um, and so that award went to Dr.

Freeman last year.

She's at Tufts University, and she's a nutritionist, and she's been working on the nutrition-associated dilated cardiomyopathy challenge.

Who are the big supporters of the foundation?
