Default Report:Canine Breed-Specific Risks of Frequently Diagnosed Diseasesat Veterinary Teaching Hospitals



Handsome Jack Morrison wrote:

From the current issue of Dog Fancy:

"Based on 30 years of animal diagnoses made at veterinary teaching
hospitals in the United States and Canada, the report identifies the
10 most frequently diagnosed problems in 78 dog breeds. It also
assigns an odds ratio comparing the risk of a specific disease in a
particular breed to the risk of that disease in all other breeds
combined.

"One example: Of the top 10 diseases diagnosed in Boxers at veterinary
hospitals, the most frequently seen disease is epileptic seizure, with
the Boxer at seven times greater risk than all other breeds
combined..."
