Osu Newsletter


Recommended Posts

I just received the online newsletter from OSU.

 

Here is a snippet that I think everyone will find interesting.

 

This was an online study conducted from 2005 to 2007:

 

 

The results showed that the mortality rate for Greyhounds within the 2-

year period was 15% (113 of 747 died). The most common cause of death

reported was cancer (66 dogs, 58%), and the most common type of

cancer listed as the cause of death was osteosarcoma (28 dogs, 25%).

 

 

This is total, just not mortality in those two years:

Osteosarcoma was the most prevalent form of cancer reported, with a prevalence of 50%

(95% CI 34.2–54.2) for dogs with cancer and 6% (95% CI 4.3–7.6) for the overall population.
