Baseline plasma norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (EPI) concentrations were measured in dogs with naturally acquired heart failure (HF) caused by either degenerative mitral valve disease and mitral regurgitation (MR) or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Compared with controls (clinically normal)...
If a dog's heart rate is very rapid and they haven't just finished a long run or play session, it could be just one of the symptoms of a potential heart problem. Heart disease in dogs is not hard to diagnose but they may not get diagnosed until the condition is more advanced if pe...

Heart disease in dogs can be eithercongenitaloracquired: Congenital heart diseasein dogs is present at birth, and can be inherited from the parents Acquired heart diseasein dogs often occurs in middle-aged to older animals due to wear and tear on the heart structures, but can also result from...
We studied the effects of congestive heart failure (CHF), an entity strongly associated with clinical AF, on atrial electrophysiology in the dog and compared the results with those in dogs subjected to rapid atrial pacing (RAP; 400 bpm) with a controlled ventricular rate (AV block plus ...
We conclude that in neonatal dogs the onset of the daily rhythms of Tb has no obvious relationship with body size or rate of growth and is not cued by the maternal Tb rhythm. The daily rhythms of HR and f do not appear before 2 months of age. Hence, they are not in synchrony with...
The complex series of hemodynamic events which leads to heart failure in humans presents a challenge for the industrial pharmacologist who is looking for an appropriate animal model for the disease. In the various clinical conditions called heart failure

Fourteen dogs (7 males and 7 females) were tested for their heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) responses in different activities and environmental challenges while their movement was controlled. First, we wanted to compare the dogs' cardiac responses in different body positions (lyi...
