All donations on this page are designated to support the Golden Retriever Lifetime Study. The Golden Retriever Lifetime Study is a longitudinal, prospective observational study following 3,044 golden retrievers throughout their lives. Morris Animal Foundation established, is leading and is funding this $32 million study to identify the nutritional, environmental, lifestyle and genetic risk factors that may increase the risk of developing cancer and other diseases in dogs such as diabetes and heart disease. What we learn will help advance the health of not only dogs, but other species as well, including humans.
