The Coton de Tulear Club of America chose to remain true to their breed, even though they were the oldest breed club. The Jack Russell Terrier also decided not to follow their counter-parts, the Parson Russell Terrier and Russell Terrier, to AKC acceptance.
The vestibulocochlear nerve (auditory vestibular nerve) , known as the eighth cranial nerve, transmits sound and equilibrium (balance) information from the inner ear to the brain.1  1 Structure.he vestibulocochlear nerve consists mostly of bipolar neurons and splits into two large divisions: the cochlear nerve and the vestibular nerve.
The spiral-shaped cochlea is part of the inner ear; it transforms sound into nerve impulses that travel to the brain. The fluid-filled semicircular canals (labyrinth) attach to the cochlea and nerves in the inner ear. They send information on balance and head position to the brain.
