Cushing's disease (hyperadrenocorticism)
Although Cushing's disease is a severe disease the changes it causes can be quite subtle in the early stages. Many owners do not recognize the signs of Cushing's disease in their pet, instead confusing the changes caused by the disease with ageing. It is important to get an early diagnosis for this disease because, with treatment, affected animals can lead a normal and full life.
