 The Health and Education Committee is excited to announce a low cost MRI scanning program for Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breeders in Canada and the United States. This program is being held in partnership with Jane Sykes at Matheson Boulevard Veterinary Services in Mississauga Ontario. At this time this program is available to dogs that are being screened for breeding purposes or are currently being used for breeding.

 

Clinic information including directions can be found on the following site;

http://www.mbvs.ca/

Participants will receive a full neurological exam by a Veterinarian. They will also receive a full MRI that meets all current scanning protocols, a CD copy of their MRI screening, and a grading certificate. The grading certificate will be issued by Dr. Clare Rusbridge BVMs PhD DipECVN MRCVS Europeon and RCVS Specialist in Veterinary Neurology. http://www.veterinary-neurologist.co.uk/clare.htm 

The current breakdown of cost at this time is shown below. (This is subject to change)

$550.00 + GST – MRI Full scan

$450.00 + GST Mini skull - T3

$49.00 + GST for 3 and older blood panel

$27 + GST for under 3 years of age blood panel 

*this MUST be completed up to a maximum of 2 weeks prior to having your dog MRI’d, The closer you can have this done before screening the better.*

3 and older will have a "Wellness 2 Profile"

Under 3 year olds will have "Preanesthetic 2 profile"

$42 – Neurological Exam – to be paid for by cash or cheque

This price does not include the fee for the blood draw by your own vet or taxes.  

In order for the cost of scanning a dog to be kept to the price quoted above, we must scan 6 dogs in one scanning day. Appointments will be arranged first come first serve through Mary Beth Squirrell, and the actual scanning day will be arranged when we have the required number of six.
