New episode, out soon-
Your Cavalier’s heart might be telling you something. Are you listening? 🫀🐾
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are some of the sweetest dogs around, and they’re also the breed most strongly linked to myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD).
On this episode of Tea & Tails, we sit down with Dr Waseem, Veterinary Cardiologist, to find out what’s actually happening inside the heart:
💛 Why Cavaliers are more vulnerable than other breeds, and how much of it comes down to genetics
💛 What a heart murmur really means, and whether a loud one is always a bad sign
💛 What we look for during an echocardiogram
💛 Stages B1, B2, C and D, explained simply
💛 When treatment should start, and why starting before heart failure matters
💛 The signs every Cavalier owner should watch for at home, and when to seek urgent care
If you share your home with a Cavalier, this is one episode you won’t want to miss.
