What to Look for in Digestive Enzymes for Pets

While certain breeds (including America's most popular breed) may be more susceptible to developing cruciate ligament rupture, the reality is, this painful and debilitating condition can occur in any dog, no matter the breed, size or age. Now there's a way to know your dog's risk with 98% accuracy.Show more

A genetic test is now available that screens for risk of cruciate ligament rupture in Labrador retrievers,

For about $250, the genetic screening evaluates multiple gene variations that, in combination, predict a dog’s genetic risk of cruciate ligament rupture with 98% accuracy.

Knowing in advance if your dog is at high risk — before cruciate ligament rupture — allows for personalized interventions that could help reduce the risk and even prevent the condition from occurring.

In most cases, ligament rupture occurs due to gradual deterioration that took place over a period of months or years.

In my experience, under-exercised dogs that eat poor-quality ultra processed diets, or those that eat homemade prey model diets lacking in important nutrients are at increased risk of CCL injury.
