STS represent 8–15% of all skin and subcutaneous tumors in dogs and 7–18% in cats (Miller et al. 1991; Mukaratirwa et al. 2005; Theilen and Madewell 1979; Dobson et al. 2002). An STS incidence of 142 per 100 000 dogs per year was reported in the UK (Dobson et al. 2002). Boerkamp et al. (2014) estimated an incidence of 114 STS/100.000 Golden retrievers/year in the Netherlands. Median age of dogs affected with STS is reported to be between 10 and 11 years (range, 5–17 years) (Ettinger et al. 2006; McSporran 2009; Liptak and Forest 2013; Bray et al. 2014). Middle to large breed dogs are commonly affected, with Golden retrievers, Setters, Swiss mountain dogs, Rottweiler, Dobermann, and Boxers reported to be at increased risk for developing certain STS (Boerkamp et al. 2014; Grüntzig et al. 2016). Median age at presentation for STS in cats is 8–11 years (range 1–17 years) (Alberdein et al. 2007; Davidson et al. 1997; Dillon et al. 2005).

There are case reports of dogs that developed STS in association with previous trauma, implants, previous injury, and parasitic infection (Spirocera lupi) (Vascellari et al. 2003, 2006; van der Merwe et al. 2008; Rayner et al. 2010).
