I had to put down my Sweet Stella 1 1/12 year ago to JRD. It was diagnosised by University Of Penn Vet Hospital Phildelphia PA. I donated her kidneys to Broad Institute as well as all relatives blood samples to aide in their research here in the USA. NMy Stella's Sire was an Import from from UK & I was told after Stella died that he had produced a kidney affected pup from another litter which was never disclosed to me. I feel that over here in the USA we are affected with JRD, but people have their mouths closed to this problem which will only hurt Our Beloved Boxers. Let this be an Open Book Subject to Help The Breed we Love.
