Abstract

A 2-year-old male castrated boxer dog was presented because of a history of syncope. Electrocardiogram tracings obtained with a cardiac event monitor showed bradycardia culminating in asystole. Sick sinus syndrome was diagnosed and treated with transvenous implantation of a dual-chambered permanent pacemaker.
