Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) and the Canine Health Information Center (CHIC) ------------------------------------------------------------- Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA)
A steadfast supporter of the Canine Health Foundation, The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) is a founding donor and has contributed nearly $150,000 to the Canine Health Foundation in support of canine health. The objectives of the OFA include collating and disseminating information concerning orthopedic and genetic diseases of animals. In this role, the OFA advises, encourages, and establishes control programs to lower the incidence of orthopedic and genetic diseases, and finances the research that will lead to cures in these diseases. Over the past 10 to 15 years the OFA has recognized that a variety of heritable diseases impact animal health. As scientific advancements enhanced the ability to diagnose heritable diseases, the OFA has supported development of diagnostic criteria and databases for a number of genetic diseases in addition to hip dysplasia. The OFA also supports studies on animal wellness through financial contributions and is a wonderful partner of the AKC Canine Health Foundation. Through its support of such projects, the OFA hopes to provide resources for the further understanding of, and ultimately prevention of genetic diseases.
