At least 1,382 cases of heart damage, possibly diet-related, have been reported in dogs, although veterinary researchers believe the problem could be more widespread than the numbers suggest.
Linda Carrollin 2018, owners and veterinarians have continued to report cases of dogs developing diet-related dilated cardiomyopathy, or DCM.
Researchers and veterinarians don't yet know exactly how dog and cat food might cause damage to some pets’ hearts, butThat finding was backed up in May when Canadian scientists published aon eight adult beagle dogs, a breed chosen because it's not known to be susceptible to the heart condition. The veterinary researchers from the University of Saskatchewan fed the dogs one of three diets: a traditional diet; a grain-free diet high in lentils; and a grain free diet high in peas.
The best evidence relating DCM to certain diets is how dogs' hearts improve once they are switched to a traditional diet, said Dr. Aly Cohen, an associate veterinarian at the Riney Canine Health Center and a clinical instructor at the Maddie’s Shelter Medicine Program at Cornell University’s School of Veterinary Medicine.
