- 13 year old arthritic FN Retriever with an arrhythmia and murmur, history of intermittent diarrhoea, bloods normal
- Normal abdominal ultrasound
- Echo showed mitral and pulmonic regurg but no remodelling
- Persistent VPC and runs of up to 5 VPCs (V tach), rate seemed around 100-120 on average
- Do not think owner will go for holter monitor
- Are these arrhythmias always secondary to systemic disease or DCM?
- What do you do if bloods/urine, abdo scan all normal and no significant cardiac disease?

- Would you treat this arrhytmia if cannot do holter? Rate does not seem too fast…
- Thanks in advance
