The verdict
According to the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine openFDA adverse-event extract, Nubian ranks #336 of 510 by total reports (26). Death-coded-share rank requires at least 50 reports. National dual: Retriever - Labrador is #1 of 510 by total adverse-event reports (93,675) at death-coded-share rank 195 of 275 breeds with at least 50 reports (3.7%); separately, Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) is #1 highest death-coded share at 99.0% (report rank #233).
Report volume reflects how common a breed or drug is and how often owners and vets file — not actual risk. Death-coded share ranks are limited to entries with enough reports to be meaningful. The two maps do not agree at #1.
Release-over-release change
PlainBreed reconstructed the prior snapshot from dated openFDA partitions through 2025 Q4, then compared it with the 2026-07-27 openFDA export. Nubian has 26 reports now versus 26 in that prior snapshot: 0 the same number of (0.0%).
This compares reported-event counts in two source snapshots. It does not establish a change in real-world risk, product safety, or disease incidence.

Read alongside breed popularity, veterinary access, and owner awareness, these shape how many events ever reach the FDA. The comparison line marks the cross-breed median death-coded share (4.8%) among breeds with 50 or more reports; values above it suggest higher reporting bias toward severe outcomes, not necessarily higher true mortality.

What to do with this goat
A report does not prove a drug caused the reaction, and popular breeds simply generate more reports.
Compare a breed's report volume against how common the breed is before drawing conclusions. See our methodology for how the death-coded share and rankings are computed, or read breed-specific reporting patterns and FDA CVM reporting.
