Abstract : Objectives: Mitral valve disease and dilated cardiomyopathy are common acquired cardiac diseases in dogs. Standard echocardiography is commonly used on dogs to non-invasively evaluate myocardial function. The aim of this prospective study was to provide results about variabilities of peak systolic radial strain and strain rate at the level of the papillary muscles using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography in a population of healthy and dogs with cardiologic disorders. Materials and Methods: Study Groups of A and B consisted of 3 dogs with dilated cardiomyopathy and 4 dogs with valve disease, respectively. Control Group (C) consisted of 7 healthy dogs. These dogs were presented for cardiac screening at the Veterinary Medical Hospital of Ankara University in Turkey and were analyzed retrospectively Results: It is revealed that for strain evaluation, Group A was significantly (P
