CARDIOLOGY

Coughing, difficulty exercising, weakness, or changes breathing can indicate potential heart disease in pets. While heart problems are commonly seen in older animals, it's important to remember that these conditions can affect pets any age. Early recognition and intervention are crucial for managing heart health effectively. 

Heart disease can pose serious risks to your pet's health. However, with early diagnosis and the right treatment, you can significantly extend your animal's life and enhance their overall quality of life. 

ENDOCRINOLOGY
(Hormones)

Early identification of endocrine problems in dogs and cats is crucial for their health and well-being. These serious, potentially life-threatening conditions can be much more manageable when detected promptly. By staying vigilant and recognizing the signs, we can ensure your furry friends receive the best care possible.

• Diabetes mellitus is caused by a deficiency in or resistance to the hormone insulin.

• Hypothyroidism, which is often diagnosed in dogs, indicates that the animal has low levels of thyroid hormone.

• Hyperthyroidism, which frequently affects cats, indicates that the animal has high levels of thyroid hormones.

• Addison’s disease (hypoadrenocorticism) and Cushing’s disease (hyperadrenocorticism) can also affect both species, although Cushing’s disease is rare in cats.
