STCTB is raising funds for the Scottish Terrier Bladder Cancer Screening Study at Purdue University by raffling off a beautiful Scottie quilt!  Purdue's Dr. Deborah Knapp is now in year two of a three-year study of transitional cell carcinoma (TCC)- bladder cancer- in dogs.  Unfortunately, Scottish Terriers are one of several breeds at high-risk for TCC.  Scottish Terrier Club of America, and many regional clubs, have long partnered with Purdue- both to refer dogs to the clinical study and to help fund this research.

An excellent article about TCC written by Dr. Knapp can be downloaded at:

This lovely Scottie quilt was hand-crafted and generously donated by

Miriam Hoy (pictured with Pam Lowe).  The winning ticket will be drawn

at our STCTB Specialty Show in Orlando on December 16th, 2016. 

You do not have to be present to win...

but you do need to purchase tickets (hopefully, many of them!) 

Funds raised and submitted to Purdue University for this study through the end of

December 2016 will be matched dollar-for-dollar by a generous private donor!

Tickets are $3.00 each or 4 for $10.00

You can obtain tickets by:

     Purchasing them online (using the PayPal button to the left).

     Contacting Pam Lowe by phone  (home 407-859-0079 or cell 407-579-2950)

                or email (pippop@aol.com) or any other STCTB Officer or Board member.

     Purchasing them at an STCTB event such as the Fall Fun Day or Specialty Show.

Want to help sell tickets?  Contact any STCTB officer or Board member.

 Note:  Per State law, raffle tickets are purchased with the intent of winning something,

therefore they are not tax deductible.

We enjoyed a wonderful evening with 27 Scottie-loving friends. at our annual dinner and awards event.  Scottie treasurers were claimed from the sales boutique, several members received awards for new championships earned in 2015, prizes were collected, and raffle tickets sold for a chance to win a beautiful hand-made Scottie quilt- to benefit canine bladder cancer research at Purdue University. Thank you to everyone who attended!  We enjoyed meeting everyone- and hope to see you again soon at another STCTB activity.
