Hyperlipidaemia is a metabolic disorder where a dog's body cannot properly process fats, leading to abnormally high levels of cholesterol or triglycerides in the bloodstream. This excess fat circulates through the cardiovascular system and can affect various organs, particularly the pancreas and liver. Veterinarians diagnose and monitor this condition using blood tests like a fasting lipid profile to measure these fat levels.
While many dogs show no symptoms early on, owners may eventually notice vomiting, abdominal pain, or decreased energy, with signs typically appearing in middle age.
This is a manageable, lifelong condition requiring a strict low-fat diet and regular blood monitoring. Lifetime management and diagnostic testing typically cost between 1,500 and 8,000 EUR.
