Familial canine diabetes mellitus.
A 10-year-old male Miniature Poodle was found to have clinical diabetes mellitus. The patient's dam had died from diabetes. Two 4-year-old dogs, produced from a mating between the patient and its dam, were examined and an oral glucose tolerance test was performed on each. One dog had striking glucose intolerance and was considered to be prediabetic.
