When it comes to heart health, an echocardiogram is one of the most effective diagnostic tools for assessing your dog's heart condition. This non-invasive procedure takes about 20-30 minutes to complete and generally doesn't require shaving their fur, though a small patch may be shaved in some cases. The echocardiogram provides real-time images of the heart, allowing us to evaluate its size, condition, and pumping efficiency and identify any abnormalities. Contact us at 905-846-2332!

Here's a fun fact! The secret of a dog’s night vision that allows them to see better than humans in low light situations is a large number of light-sensitive rods found in the retina that collect light. The dog’s rod-dominant retina collects this light and using a thin tissue behind the retina called the tapetum lucidum amplifies and reflects the light back to the camera-like lens, which focuses on what the dog is looking at.
