Excerpt: "Several dogs in Flint have tested positive for lead during three recent screenings by Michigan State University's College of Veterinary Medicine.
Daniel Langlois, assistant professor with MSU's College of Veterinary Medicine, said 14 of more than 170 dogs tested showed lead in their blood during the free screenings being primarily funded through gift funds.
Of those 14 dogs, Langlois said 10 showed levels suggestive of recent or low-level exposure to lead -- 25-45 part per billion -- while four tested positive above the reportable limit of 50 ppb and reported to the state."
