Evaluating the Effectiveness of Selective Breeding and Corrective Surgery on Entropion in Labrador Retrievers From a Guide Dog Program

These results provide evidence that in a population of Labrador Retrievers where the heritability of entropion is high, selective breeding can greatly impact the incidence of entropion, and surgical repair is an effective form of treatment at a young age.
