Title: Glimmer of hope?
Post by: BazaJT on 20 November 2012, 19:05:45

I know the subject of stem cell research can be a thorny one,but I see that using this type of research they've managed to give at least one dog a better life again,after they repaired spinal damage to enable it to walk properly on all fours once more.Apparently they treated 34 dogs in total[not all were successful].Given time they believe they can transfer this over to people,so a glimmer of hope for the future for those suffering spinal damage?

It was good to see that little fella managing a trot on all fours again  :)
As you say BazaJT, a glimmer of hope and another step forward in the Research  :y
