Just like humans, pet can have cardiovascular issues too. The veterinarians at Creature Comfort Animal Clinic have the expertise to diagnose and treat heart conditions such as hypertension, heart valvular disorders, congestive heart failure and other heart conditions your pet may develop. Pets with heart disease may have symptoms of lethargy, weakness, rapid breathing, fainting spells, coughing or lack of appetite. Some pets may not show any visible signs until discovered during a routine wellness exam. To obtain a diagnosis of your pet’s heart condition, we will give your pet a thorough examination and may suggest additional diagnostic testing such as bloodwork, chest x-rays, blood pressure or electrocardiogram(ECG).

Please call us if your pet is experiencing hair loss or is licking or scratching excessively, or has bumps or growths on the skin. Ear infections in can be a sign of allergies. If your pet is shaking it's head, scratching it's ears, rubbing the ear area on the floor or furniture, has odor in the ear, redness, swelling or hair loss around an ear, they probably have an ear infection. It is important that you have your pet diagnosed and treated promptly; ignored or improperly treated ear infections may lead to skin changes, chronic pain or even deafness.
