If your hound is already in the IWF Lifetime Cardiac Study II
Go online to https://www.iwfoundation.org/studies/life-cycle-study-II . Under Study Forms, click on Study Entry/Update Form and complete the information. You will receive an email asking you to provide an ECG. Bring a copy of the email to the show and you will be eligible for the $70 IWF discounted rate. (There is no cost to receive a copy of the OFA Congenital Cardiac form but you must bring a copy of your AKC registration.)
If you are entering your hound in the IWF Lifetime Cardiac Study II
The directions are the same as above. In addition, please print, complete & bring to the show the Venipuncture Consent Form (located directly below the LCSII form) so 5-10cc of blood may be drawn from your hound.
If your hound is not in the IWF Lifetime Cardiac Study II
And you want an ECG and Auscultation to receive a copy of the OFA Congenital Cardiac form, please bring a copy of the AKC registration. The cost is $90.
If your hound is not in the IWF Lifetime Cardiac Study II
And you want just an ECG, please fill out the one page form available at the show and self-address one of the #10 envelopes. A report on your hound and a copy of the ECG strip will be mailed to you after the show. The cost is $45.
