Howl-lelujah! Dogs and humans are fatter than ever — it’s no surprise that overweight people tend to have overweight dogs.

Obesity genes that cause dogs to pile on the pounds have been identified, with the same genes associated with obesity in ...

A study from the University of Cambridge has uncovered a genetic link between Labrador retrievers and humans that sheds new ...

This insatiable appetite is a quirk of the Labrador breed, encoded in their genes. It’s one of the reasons why labs are particularly prone to obesity. And according to a new study at the University of ...

A gene linked to obesity in Labradors is the same one found in humans, scientists say. The discovery could help researchers understand how genes influence appetite and weight gain.
