The project is known as the Canine Lifetime Health Project, will be conducted by the Morris Animal Foundation, will follow Golden Retrievers from 2 through 7 years of age, and will span 13 years. The purpose of this study is to better understand the genetic, nutritional and environmental risk factors for cancer and other diseases.
