Comparison of performance measures between Pre- and Post-treatment OA dogs and between Healthy and OA dogs, during off-lead walks.

LMEMs per group compared shown.*p**p***p0.05.For the Pre:Post treatment comparison, the number of dogs displaying an expected change in performance, due to treatment, compared to the number showing the opposite are shown as a ratio in brackets, followed by the amount of variation explained by the model. Mean dog performance per group is given with standard deviations. The performance measures assessed were Maximum Velocity (VMAX, ms-1), Smoothed Maximum Velocity (VSM_MAX, ms-1), Maximum Acceleration (AMAX, ms-2), Smoothed Maximum Acceleration (ASM_MAX, ms-2), Maximum Deceleration (DMAX, ms-2), Smoothed Maximum Deceleration (DSM_MAX, ms-2), Mean Velocity (VMEAN, ms-1), Mean Acceleration (AMEAN, ms-2), Mean Deceleration (DMEAN, ms-2).Comparison of performance measures between Pre- and Post-treatment OA dogs and between Healthy and OA dogs, during off-lead walks.
