Thank you so much, Kai. This isn't something I was aware of. So far, nothing we have had to deal with, but I like staying up to date with these procedures. Is the CFS test conclusive, or is there still chance for error. How long has this procedure been done, and are there any risks involved? If you know of any links that will point me in the direction, I would enjoy reading them. We have OSU vet school close to us, I will have to check to see if they can perform this procedure.
I am happy to hear this procedure exists, thank you for another enlighting and educational experience here at TCS!!
