It is with regret that, due to increasing costs, we have to announce a rise in the fee for heart screening to £100 for each hound with effect from January 2024. We hope everyone will continue to support the scheme to ensure that the sessions are filled, as we are unable to run them if there are not sufficient numbers.
This is our first price increase since 2020, and remains excellent value for money for a three part screening which through an independent cardiologist practice can cost anything from £250 to £600.
