We would like your help to find out more about heart disease (specifically DCM) and sudden death in Deerhounds which we believe are relatively common in the breed. We want to hear from all owners of (past and present) Deerhounds so that we can learn exactly how common the problems are. We are keen for all Deerhound owners to complete the survey, even if the hounds have always been healthy, so that we can assess the size of the problem. All Deerhound owners, whether pet owners or breeders, are invited to take a few minutes to complete the confidential survey by clicking the link below:

Please share this with your friends so that as many Deerhound owners as possible may respond.
Please familiarise yourselves with the Owner information sheet and the consent form using the link below as your informed consent is important to us. Thank you.
