Species: Dog
Condition: Coagulation Disorders
Organ System: Cardiovascular
The 2 most prevalent and most dangerous coagulation (bleeding) disorders are Haemophilia (which affects the body’s ability to stop bleeding by clotting blood) and Von Willebrand’s disease (which is a lack of Von Willebrand’s factor (vWF), which is essential to enable blood to clot after injury). Other forms of bleeding disorder are much rarer and tend only to affect the following breeds: Boxer, American Cocker spaniel, English springer spaniel, Great Pyrenees, Kerry blue terrier, miniature Poodle, Saint Bernard, Jack Russell terrier. If you notice your dog tends to bruise easily or have nosebleeds, your vet can test for bleeding disorders.
