ShakyBraves
Pet Heart Health & RRR Tracker
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Track breathing rate, medications, and symptoms for pets with heart disease. Designed for MVD, MMVD, DCM, CHF and ARVC. Share heart health reports with your veterinarian.
ShakyBraves is a pet heart health monitoring and tracking tool designed to help dog and cat owners monitor heart disease (MVD, DCM, ARVC, PDA, TVD, HCM, RCM, and more) with clarity and confidence.
Recommended by cardiologists and vets, the report gives them the between-visit picture they actually need to make better decisions for your pet.
Built around resting respiratory rate (RRR) monitoring, one of the most important at-home indicators for heart disease progression, ShakyBraves makes it simple to track, understand, and share your dog or cat’s health data over time.
Whether your dog or cat was recently diagnosed or you're managing long-term care, ShakyBraves helps you stay consistent and organized between vet visits.
