Congenital heart diseases occur due to morphological and functional changes, caused by malformations that persist after birth, with the animal at risk of sudden death or hemodynamic repercussions. The defect of the atrial septum is a disease with little occurrence, but of great importance, requiring a thorough clinical examination of the puppies for early identification and, if necessary, investigation for heart murmur in order to identify possible congenital heart diseases. It usually affects more dogs than cats and most sold or given puppies are undiagnosed, which can cause conflicts or the death of the animal. In the case presented, the kennel warned the buyer that this animal had some alterations that had not yet been diagnosed and represented a decrease in the final amount for the sale. This owner sought veterinary medical care without diagnosis for 11 days until he was assisted at a veterinary clinic located in the city of São Paulo, where the patient received a diagnosis of atrial septal defect and started treatment.
