Hi Ida,

Many vet clinics have and use a Doppler which is more of a direct blood pressure measurement and preferred by many veterinarians for ease of use and relatively inexpensive cost. There are some oscillometric or other methods which have a higher cost but have other advantages. Our clinic has the basic Doppler machine (only one model I know of which your veterinarian should be able to price out from their supplier).

I hope this helps.
