NYC Reported Dog Bites. Section 11.03 of NYC Health Code requires all animals bites to be reported within 24 hours of the event. Information reported assists the Health Department to determine if the biting dog is healthy ten days after the person was bitten in order to avoid having the person bitten receive unnecessary rabies shots. Data is collected from reports received online, mail, fax or by phone to 311 or NYC DOHMH Animal Bite Unit. Each record represents a single dog bite incident. Information on breed, age, gender and Spayed or Neutered status have not been verified by DOHMH and is listed only as reported to DOHMH. A blank space in the dataset means no data was available.
Since the entry into force of the Landeshundegesetz NRW, the competent local regulatory authorities are obliged to report the number of dangerous dogs, dogs of certain breeds and large dogs (§§ 3, 10 and 11 LHundG NRW) reported to the district governments each year as of 31.12., divided according to the dog breeds listed in the law (only 8 selected breeds are to be reported for the large dogs according to § 11 and all other large dogs). The number of bite incidents and other incidents recorded in the reporting year must also be reported, again broken down by race. In addition, it is differentiated whether the bite incidents have led to injuries to humans or animals. In addition, the number of official findings on the dangerousness of dogs in individual cases (Section 3(3) of the LHundG NRW) as well as the number of criminal proceedings and OWi proceedings initiated in each case must be reported on a racial basis. The district governments summarise the reports received from the municipal regulatory authorities in a table and send this table to the Ministry in the first quarter of the following year. This checks the figures received for plausibility, summarises the figures for the respective year for the whole country, calculates from the reported absolute figures relative frequencies (e.g. number of bite incidents of a dog breed in relation to the total population of this breed) and creates graphic representations and comparison tables to the statistics of previous years from this data. The file below contains the complete individual annual statistics from 2013 onwards.
There were more than 26,000 new registrations of pet dogs in Norway in 2023. Among these, measured by new registration numbers, the most popular dog breed was the Border Collie. Comparison to Sweden In Sweden, Labrador Retriever dogs were the most popular breed in 2023 with 39,800 animals. Also, more than 33,000 registered German Shepherd dogs were recorded. Banned dog breeds In Norway, dog breeds which are considered potentially aggressive and dangerous are banned. It is also illegal to have crossbreeds of them or import these dogs into the country. Moreover, it is against the law to import dogs that have been trained to attack. Banned dog breeds are for example, Pit Bull Terriers or American Staffordshire Terriers. In general, the import of live animals is strictly regulated. Despite the strict regulations, the import value of live animals has been high in 2023 compared to the previous years.

IntroductionLarge scale data on the prevalence of diverse medical conditions among dog breeds in the United States are sparse. This cross-sectional study sought to estimate the lifetime prevalence of medical conditions among US dogs and to determine whether purebred dogs have higher lifetime prevalence of specific medical conditions compared to mixed-breed dogs.MethodsUsing owner-reported survey data collected through the Dog Aging Project (DAP) Health and Life Experience Survey for 27,541 companion dogs, we identified the 10 most commonly reported medical conditions in each of the 25 most common dog breeds within the DAP cohort. Lifetime prevalence estimates of these medical conditions were compared between mixed-breed and purebred populations. The frequency of dogs for whom no medical conditions were reported was also assessed within each breed and the overall mixed-breed and purebred populations.ResultsA total of 53 medical conditions comprised the top 10 conditions for the 25 most popular breeds. The number of dogs for whom no medical conditions were reported was significantly different (p = 0.002) between purebred (22.3%) and mixed-breed dogs (20.7%). The medical conditions most frequently reported within the top 10 conditions across breeds were dental calculus (in 24 out of 25 breeds), dog bite (23/25), extracted teeth (21/25), osteoarthritis (15/25), and Giardia (15/25).DiscussionPurebred dogs in the DAP did not show higher lifetime prevalence of medical conditions compared to mixed-breed dogs, and a higher proportion of purebred dogs than mixed-breed dogs had no owner-reported medical conditions. Individual breeds may still show higher lifetime prevalence for specific conditions.

This data-set of 8-bit JPEG files represents CT scans of the ear regions of 17 dog breeds, plus a mongrel and a wolf. Each folder includes a CT parameter settings text file (.xtekct) which contains the voxel size.
17 of the 19 JPEG stacks were based on scans of prepared skull specimens from the Veterinary Anatomy Museum and Anatomic Pathology Laboratory at the Queen’s Veterinary School Hospital, University of Cambridge. The mongrel was a preserved teaching specimen, while the Chihuahua was a euthanized animal donated to the Queen's Veterinary School, University of Cambridge, for the purposes of teaching and research.
These CT scans were made by Matthew J. Mason as part of a project entitled "Structure and scaling of the middle ear in domestic dog breeds". An original journal article based on reconstructions made from the scan data has been published in Journal of Anatomy (volume 245, issue 2, 2024), co-authored by Matthew J. Mason and Madaleine A. Lewis. The article may be found here: https://doi.org/10.1111/joa.14049.
