Is Your Beloved Pet at Risk of Heart Disease?

This month of love, let's check the 'heart status' of your furry companions to see which breeds are most at risk. Heart disease in pets can result from structural abnormalities, functional impairments, or congenital defects present from birth. When it progresses to heart failure, the circulatory system fails to function properly, preventing vital organs and tissues from receiving sufficient oxygen and blood. These signs may be visible from birth or develop later in life.

Breeds Predisposed to Heart Disease

• Chihuahua
• Shih Tzu
• Pomeranian
• Poodle
• Golden Retriever
• Doberman
• Maltese.

High-Risk Cat Breeds

• Maine Coon
• Ragdoll
• Siamese (Thai Cat)
• American Shorthair
• Persian
• Sphynx
• Scottish Fold.

If your pet belongs to one of these high-risk breeds, you can seek expert consultation and treatment at Thonglor Pet Hospital. We offer a comprehensive diagnostic process to identify early risk factors. For pets already diagnosed with heart conditions, our dedicated cardiology team meticulously monitors for abnormalities and related complications to ensure the most effective and personalized care for every individual pet.
