: Hope this helps! You can also use our search engine and pop in OCD or Obssessive Compulsive Disorder and there should be more posts regarding this subject.

Hi Bill,
Perdue University School of Veterinary Medicine is doing a study on OCD in canines. A friend of mine read about it in a magazine. You might try contacting them, to see where the study is right now. They may be able to provide some insights or help.
Good luck!
