-- A three-year global canine cardiology study funded by Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health that could reveal new information about congestive heart failure treatments has concluded.
The Quality of Life and Extension of Survival Time (QUEST) study compared two different treatments - pimobendan capsules vs. a benazepril hydrochloride treatment - for 260 dogs in 11 countries.

Results of the study are to be published in the fall edition of the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine.
