The verdict
According to the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine openFDA adverse-event extract, Terrier - Fox (unspecified) ranks #116 of 510 by total reports (860) and #146 of 275 by death-coded share (4.7%). 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.

This compares reported-event counts in two source snapshots. It does not establish a change in real-world risk, product safety, or disease incidence.

A weighted composite across 4 of 4 dimensions, each benchmarked against every tracked breed with at least 200 reports (n=185). Dimensions with insufficient data drop out and their weight redistributes to the rest, so a missing input never silently deflates the score.

Change in annual report volume over the last 5 complete years
4.7% of 860 terrier - fox (unspecified) reports involved a death outcome.
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 dog
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.
