It is again time for me to be organizing the annual Frenchie art auction to be held at our national specialty.
Your pieces in the past have been wildly popular and have helped raise significant funds for canine health research.
I attach a list of the various research projects that our Donor Advised Fund has helped fund to date so that you can see just what your contributions in past years have helped accomplish.

We feel that we are making real progress not just for Frenchies, but for dogs in general. And in the case of a number of research areas, for people as well because a lot of procedures and treatments that are developed in dogs are then used to develop similar ones in people.

Here is a video showing a new treatment for brain cancer, featuring a Frenchie named Devon who lives in Sacramento and belongs to a friend of mine.

Devon was the 12th dog treated in this series and because of his response, humans will now be accepted into the same experimental treatment program at UC/SF. We are so proud of Devon!

Thanks,
Jan Grebe, Chair
