Best Diet for Dobermans with Heart Disease DCM?
Hypertension, Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium and Heart Disease Although hypertension is a circulatory problem, it is usually caused by renal rather than heart disease in dogs and cats. The renal causes and their management are described in the section on renal disease. Feeding low sodium diets is an important part of management.
