Metabolic and Immune System Disorders

These pages discuss diseases of metabolism and immune system. These are complex systems, so full understanding of diseases involving metabolism or immune systems are not always well-understood. In many cases, research is ongoing, as many of the diseases affecting canines also affect humans. By helping our dogs, we also help support human health as well.
