GDV (Gastric Dilatation and Volvulus, aka "Bloat") can be fatal in dogs. It occurs quickly and it is important for owners to be aware of signs and symptoms related to this condition.

Cushing’s disease, also known as hyperadrenocorticism, happens when a dog’s body makes too much of a hormone called cortisol.  Cortisol helps a dog respond to stress, control weight, fight infections, and keep the blood sugar levels normal.
