Hyperadrenocorticism
I have a disease named after me*. Aren't I the lucky one. Hyperadrenocorticism, more commonly known as "Cushing's Syndrome" due to it's spectacular tongue-twisting attributes, thankfully only affects dogs.
(I don't know whether that insinuates something else, though!)
Read more about it here. Go on, you know you want to. Fascinating stuff, eh.
* -actually I think it was named after some long lost distant relative, given that I've never heard of the damn disease before now. And I'm not a vet either. Or anything like a vet.
