We appreciate that Breed Clubs will need to take this request to their committees, and that for some it will not be possible to make a decision within the six week timeframe. We are investigating all corporate avenues that seem appropriate but, in reality, it will take a similar timeframe for a corporate plug to come into effect, as companies will have similar processes to negotiate. That is why we hope that individuals will consider donating, and indeed a few have done so already. Letters of intent from Breed Clubs, to confirm that they are at least considering making a donation would also be useful, and would help convince the University of Cambridge that the Genetics Centre has the backing of canine stakeholders.
