The Akita
Challenge Pin
Challenge Pins are
issued each year by the Challenge Group, an association of Akita fanciers
dedicated to raising funds for research into diseases that afflict Akitas.
Proceeds from sales of the first pin are being used to fund research into
the genetics of PRA in the Akita. The funds from 1999 and 2000 have
been earmarked for research into Sebaceous Adenitis, an autoimmune mediated
skin disease. Money raised from the sale of Challenge Pins is turned
over to the Akita Club of America. Currently, funds are being matched dollar
for dollar, so each dollar spent results in two banked for Akita specific
research by the Canine Health Foundation. Money donated by national
clubs is also partly matched by funds from club contributions to the AKC
for this purpose. Trophy sponsors are not only helping the club with
our show expenses and providing a lasting, unique prize to an exhibitor,
they are also furthering Akita health research. Thank you for helping
us better all our lives, both the dogs and the people who love them.

President, The Lone Star Akita Club of Houston
