- Syringomyelia is
a serious neurological disorder that affects many different
breeds of dog. Some of the known affected breeds are the Brussels Griffon, Boston Terrier, Yorkshire Terrier, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Chihuahua, French Bulldog, King Charles Spaniel, Maltese, Pomeranian, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Hungarian
Vizsla, Weimaraner, Rhodesian Ridgeback, and Poodle. It is
widespread in the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and has
prompted the Cavalier Clubs, veterinary neurologists, and
geneticists worldwide to band together to identify the gene
that causes the disease in an attempt to provide better
diagnosis, prognosis, and clinical management
with the ultimate hope of finding a cure. If you're interested
in learning more about Syringomyelia, the CavalierHealth.org
website has the most extensive, up-to-date information
available: http://www.cavalierhealth.org/syringomyelia.htm
