Friday morning, DH got in touch with our vet. Puppy had a small heart murmur & she had told us that there’s medication we can start her on if she starts having other symptoms. There hasn’t really been any until last night. That was a HUGE symptom.
DH took her to vet in the afternoon & they waited for a few hours & just when he was going to give up… they called them in. She had chest X-rays. Heart is enlarged. This seems to have been some kind of heart event maybe even heart attack. Her murmur was worse. Lots more details but she is now on 2 heart type medications. This may happen again even on the meds & she may or may not revive.
She seems okay. But we know she’s not & we’re pretty upset but we will love on her & hoping the meds will work & help her. We had been seriously considering getting another dog for the past 3 months to keep her company & cause we just want another big dog, again. We still miss our Catahoula Leopard Dog sweetheart greatly! Even though it’s been 2 1/2 years.
We both had been watching the rescues but had not adopted yet because the timing just didn’t seem quite right.
It was nice having the day off. Cd
