Evaluating the prevalence and effectiveness of breed-specific legislation
… health problem, which some jurisdictions pass breed-specific legislation (BSL) to address. However, very little non-anecdotal evidence regarding the efficacy of BSL has been presented. Currently, BSL research is hampered by the absence of standard terminology, an established prevalence, or a …

Utilizing Cinematic Stories to Shift Fear Into Compassion Towards Pit Bull Type Breeds
… health under a One Health initiative. More specifically, tailoring well-crafted cinematic stories utilizing thoughtful anthropomorphism about misunderstood dog breeds such as pit bulls can potentially debunk sensationalized media myths surrounding their reputation. Further research is worth …

Labordiagnostische Referenzbereiche bei unterschiedlichen Schweinerassen sowie histopathologische und immunhistochemische Untersuchung von Gehirnen älterer Sauen und Eber auf transmissible spongiforme Enzephalopathie im Rahmen der TSE-Studie
… about selected blood ingredients for twelve pig breeds regarding the influence of the genotype. A possible race-dependence was proved for haematological parameters especially for erythrocytes, thrombocytes and leucocytes. Differences between the breeds were also found for electrolytes and the …

Etude prospective des caractéristiques hématologiques, biochimiques et urinaires du Dogue de Bordeaux: Une race prédisposée à une glomérulopathie familiale
… diagnosis of JGN is of central importance for breeders and owners. To ease screening of affected dogs, we first wanted to improve our knowledge of this ancient French breed by describing characteristics of healthy DDB dogs. Given available information, we indeed suspected that some biological …

AN EXPANSION ON DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC MARKERS IN DOGS WITH ACUTE AND CHRONIC HEART FAILURE
… any stages. However, individual factors such as breed, sex, age and therapy appeared to affect aldosterone concentrations. Chihuahuas and intact females showed the highest values of UAldo:C among breeds and reproductive states respectively. These results suggested that population-based reference …

Validation and standardisation of a two dimensional motion analysis technique to measure normal conformation and gait in Arabian horses.
… and gait. The use of these methods to define breed specific conformation and gait could be utilised by the industry for conformation and gait assessment. This study focussed on validating and standardising such methods to define normal conformation and gait for the Arabian horse. Validation …

Genetic variation within the Icelandic cattle breed: assessment using microsatellites and analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the Leptin and DGAT1 genes
Sufficient genetic variation within domestic breeds is a crucial factor in all breeding work. It is a prerequisite for future breeding progress and is used in research and development of breeding methods at the molecular level. The present study estimates genetic variation within the Icelandic …

FROM MUSCLE TO MEAT: MORPHO-FUNCTIONAL FOUNDATIONS FOR APPLICATIVE ASPECTS.
… In livestock, particularly among native breeds, myogenesis is influenced by distinct genetic traits that also enhance the animals' resilience to environmental challenges. The interaction between animal’s genetic background and external factors, such as seasonal temperature variations, …

DIAGNOSTIC APPROACH TO MYXOMATOUS MITRAL VALVE DISEASE IN CAVALIER KING CHARLES SPANIELS: IDENTIFICATION OF EARLY DIAGNOSTIC FACTORS (MORPHOMETRIC PARAMETERS AND MIRNAS EXPRESSION)
… morbidity and mortality, especially among small breeds. Notably, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (CKCS) demonstrates an early onset and more rapid progression of the disease, indicating a strong genetic predisposition along with breed-specific risk factors. Despite considerable advancements in …

METABOLIC CHARACTERISTICS AND SUSCEPTIBILITY TO LAMINITIS IN MORGAN AND THOROUGHBRED HORSES
… and veterinarian today. The incidence of, and breed susceptibility to, this disease has never been formally assessed. Many practitioners feel that susceptibility may be related to metabolic imbalances. The purpose of this study was to tabulate current clinical information from a nationwide …

Identification of genetic loci underlying equine metabolic syndrome and laminitis risk
… and laminitis susceptibility are shared across breeds of horses, and that differences in the severity and secondary features of the EMS phenotype between breeds, or between individuals within a breed, are the result of modifying genetic risk alleles with variable frequencies between breeds. To …
