Seeking respondents who participate in competitive agility - more details in post. https://ift.tt/eA8V8J Below is a copy and paste from the text of my acquaintance's request. Please spare a moment to help a resident (American College of Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation) at The Ohio State University CVM complete her research and improve medicine for canine athletes! You get to be a part of science and medical progress; top dogs get better care. Thank you! We need information on agility dogs who have competed in the last 3 years! Dr. Arielle Pechette Markley, Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Veterinarian at The Ohio State University Veterinary Medical Center, is doing a study as part of an Ohio State University research project. We would like your help to determine whether certain factors associated with training and competing in agility competitions result in increased or decreased risk of injury in dogs. The purpose of this research is to provide guidance for recommendations regarding training and competing and to help determine what future studies and research need to be done so that we can provide the best evidence-based care for our dogs. We want to be able to know how to keep our agility dogs safe and healthy! We need survey input for both dogs that have experienced injury and dogs that have never experienced injury. Please share with your Agility friends!! Participants must be 18 years of age and must have competed in agility competition within the past 3 years to be eligible.
