A cross-sectional survey examining Canadian veterinarians' experiences with and perceptions of canine importation.

Background: As numbers of dogs entering Canada from abroad are increasing, it is essential to understand the scope, challenges, and risks associated with canine importation. Canadian veterinarians' collective experience with and clinical knowledge of imported dogs can provide valuable insights into this practice.

Objective: To describe Canadian veterinarians' experiences with, and perspectives of, imported dogs in clinical practice.

Quantification of circulating tumour cells over time in dogs with appendicular osteosarcoma.

Enumeration of circulating tumour cells (CTC) has shown promise for prognostication and guidance of therapeutic decisions in human cancers. The objective of this study was to enumerate CTC over time in dogs with naturally occurring osteosarcoma (OSA), and to determine correlation with patient outcome. Twenty-six dogs with OSA and no evidence of metastatic disease at the time of amputation were enrolled.
