Upcoming Online Event Thyroid disease in pets usually takes one of two forms: hyperthyroidism (an overactive thyroid) or hypothyroidism (an underactive thyroid). Since the thyroid helps regulate metabolism, an imbalance in thyroid hormones can affect your pet’s energy, weight, growth, and overall health. While many species can develop thyroid disease, some are more likely to develop one type over the other, leading to different challenges and treatment options. Join us Wednesday, January 21st at 6PM ET on Zoom as Dr. Mariel Covo, Senior Veterinarian and Specialist in Internal Medicine, discusses thyroid disease in dogs and cats. She will review the signs to watch for, explain how these conditions are diagnosed, and highlight the latest treatment options to support your pet’s health and quality of life.
