    Das eine ist Genitiv, das andere nicht. Auf Deutsch also "die Hundegesundheit ("the dog health") und die "Gesundheit des Hundes" ("the dog's health")

    "My dog's health is not very good."

    "Our dogs' health is not very good." (2 or more dogs)

    "I have a magazine about dog health."

    "Dog health" really seems to be an accepted term.

    #7 - While I totally agree one should not write sentences like "I am worried about my dog health" - lol - I would argue that the term "dog's health" does not really deserve an entry in a dictionary as neither does "(my) brother's bike".

    One might also contemplate the term "dogs' health" I guess.

    Havning written this, it seems that "The Dog's Health" serves at least as one title of a dictionary about dog health
