High cholesterol, or hyperlipidemia, happens when a dog's blood has too much fat in it, which can lead to various health problems.
Some common signs of high cholesterol include eye changes, like white spots on their corneas, digestive issues, and even a higher risk of seizures.
There are many causes of high cholesterol, including genetics, certain medications, and underlying medical conditions like diabetes.
The good news is that high cholesterol can often be managed with dietary changes, weight control, and treating any underlying health problems.
