Today, we released our annual State of Pet Health Report—our comprehensive report comprised of medical data from the nearly 2.5 million dogs and 500,000 cats seen in our hospitals in 2015.

In this year’s edition, our Banfield Applied Research and Knowledge (BARK) team analyzed trends from the past 10 years and highlighted the most common diagnoses affecting cats and dogs.
