TL;DR:
It is concluded that, in general, it is better for veterinarians to treat suspected pain first rather than consider its significance only when the animal does not respond to behavior therapy, which is seriously limiting the recognition of this welfare problem.

Acquisition of a visual discrimination and reversal learning task by Labrador retrievers
ANIMAL COGNITION, 17(3), 787–792.
author keywords: Dog; Canine; Cognition; Visual discrimination
MeSH headings : Animals; Cognition; Discrimination Learning; Discrimination, Psychological; Dogs / psychology; Female; Male; Neuropsychological Tests; Pattern Recognition, Visual; Reversal Learning; Visual Perception
TL;DR:
The present study confirmed that the modified TGTA system is suitable for cognitive evaluations in Labrador retriever MWDs and can be used to further explore effects of sex, phenotype, age, and other factors in relation to canine cognition and learning, and may provide an additional screening tool for MWD selection.

Prevalence and classification of chronic kidney disease in cats randomly selected from four age groups and in cats recruited for degenerative joint disease studies
JOURNAL OF FELINE MEDICINE AND SURGERY, 16(6), 465–472.
MeSH headings : Age Factors; Animals; Cat Diseases / classification; Cat Diseases / diagnosis; Cat Diseases / epidemiology; Cats; Osteoarthritis / classification; Osteoarthritis / epidemiology; Osteoarthritis / veterinary; Prevalence; Renal Insufficiency, Chronic / classification; Renal Insufficiency, Chronic / epidemiology; Renal Insufficiency, Chronic / veterinary; Retrospective Studies; Risk Factors
TL;DR:
Significant concurrence between CKD and DJD in cats of all ages is found, indicating the need for increased screening for CKD when selecting DJD treatments and the idea of a relationship and causal commonality between CKd andDJD owing to the striking concurrence across age groups and life stages.

TL;DR:
Regardless of DJD status, 40% of items listed by owners involved mobility, while 60% were ‘inactive’ items, rejecting the hypothesis that items contributing to QoL in cats are predominantly items requiring mobility.
