I spent time researching different dog breeds when i was planning on getting my first dog. I eliminated a few breeds strictly based on the high occurance of cancer. I know with Golden Retrievers (for example) cancer is probably the most common cause of death in the breed. I spent a lot of time at
www.petloss.com where i would talk to people who had just lost their pets, and in the year and a half that i was there daily i met a lot of golden retriever owners, and of all the ones i met, not one passed from anything other than cancer.... I was not aware that there is so much cancer in Corgis... This worries me a bit. Is it very common, michael? I would be interested if anyone has info regarding lines that are prone to cancer or anything of that sort....the "C" word scares me to pieces...and i wont even breathe anything of this around my husband who is even more afraid of that word... Thank you for posting this information, I will make sure I am aware of any changes etc as Dillon ages...
