Approximately 10-20% of cats and dogs have underlying heart disease, which can affect the quality and length of their lives. What’s more, pets can be born with cardiac abnormalities or develop them over time. That’s why it’s important to book regular checkups so that our team can prevent or detect any potential heart issues your pet may be facing. 

Signs of heart problems include:

  • Persistent cough
  • Fainting
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Abdominal swelling
  • Sudden weight loss
  • Decreased energy

If you notice any of the above symptoms, we recommend seeing your veterinarian as soon as possible. Whether your pet faces issues like irregular heartbeat, congenital heart disease, heartworm, or other cardiac concerns, our team is here to provide expert guidance.

At your cardiology consultation, we’ll gather a detailed history of your pet’s health and may conduct diagnostic tests such as echocardiograms or electrocardiograms for a comprehensive evaluation. We’ll discuss a personalized treatment plan, addressing your pet’s unique cardiac needs.
