Wondering where breeders in California get their echo heart checks done? Have a breeding girl for a service organization that they'd like to get done. Thanks in advance!
Depending on where they are in California, they can see a ACVIM cardiologist in their office or find an echo clinic. You can find an ACVIM caridiologist on the ACVIM website.
