Congenital persistent right aortic arch was diagnosed as the cause of weight loss and regurgitation in 2 dogs, aged 2.5 and 8 years, respectively. The first dog had 2 brief episodes of regurgitation that resolved spontaneously before the most recent onset of signs and diagnosis. The second dog had no clinical signs attributed to persistent right aortic arch until 2 months before the diagnosis was made. Dogs born with persistent right aortic arch typically have clinical signs of esophageal stenosis around the time of weaning. Evidence from the 2 dogs in this report indicate that clinical signs associated with vascular ring anomalies may not become evident until later in life. Veterinarians should consider the diagnosis of persistent right aortic arch in any age dog that is admitted because of regurgitation, weight loss, and dilatation of the cranial portion of the esophagus.
