Top 10 Human Health Conditions that Also Affect Dogs




Golden RetrieverNovember is Pet Cancer Awareness Month. Are you aware that in addition to cancer, our dogs (and cats) can suffer from other human health issues such as diabetes and laryngitis?

According to Veterinary Pet Insurance, the company that started Pet Cancer Awareness Month in 2005, these are the top 10 human health conditions that also affect our pooches:

1. Allergies
2. Bladder infection
3. Arthritis
4. Diabetes
5. Skin cancer
6. Gum disease
7. Acne
8. Stomach ulcers
9. Cataracts
10. Laryngitis

Just like humans, dogs should have an annual checkup to ensure they stay healthy – and possibly nip any of these ailments in the bud.
