• RVC collaborates to reveal health issues in different dog breeds

  

  A Royal Veterinary College (RVC) veterinary researcher has been involved in an exciting collaboration to create a single resource, in an easy-to-read book format, that identifies the health issues that each dog and cat breed is predisposed to. Until now, owners have struggled to find information about the diseases their breeds are prone to because this information was often scattered across thousands of scholarly articles in academic journals. Now, following exhaustive research that examined thousands of peer-reviewed publications on dog and cat health, three veterinary surgeon researchers have finally collated all this information into a single book source for owners, vets, breeders and students.
