    My dog just started on this and lasix last night. After a week of labored breathing, coughing and an original miss-diagnosis of antibiotics for respiratory infection. He is finally sleeping right now!! I thought he might die yesterday when i took him back to the vet. If your dog is gagging, coughing and/or breathing funny make the vet xray their chest!! My vet missed him having an enlarged heart and murmur on Tuesday. I took him back Thursday and got xrays.
    Your dog will need a lot of water and more potty breaks!! My 9 year old that has never pottied in the house couldn't hold his pee b/c of meds!! Now, im letting him out every 2 hours until the fluid is more controlled.

      Lasix is way cheaper then the vetmedin, I do see the difference. But see how both of them work together.

    My 13 year old chihuahua, MoMo, has a stage 5 to 6 heart murmur. He can go into heart failure anytime now and vetmedin seems to be making his day to day life better. He is sleeping and he is not crying every minute of the day. I always knew his murmur was getting bad but the vet didn't prescribe this till its about too late. If your dog is coughing (wet) constantly... Tell your vet and get medicine. I am sad because my dog didn't have to suffer. There was medicine out there to help but I didn't research. By the way, all my pets see a vet every 6 months. It can be expensive but I volunteered myself when I got pets. Also, there is a generic. For 10 pills, it was about 90 dollars, generic is about 15. I didn't know there was a generic until I said I can't afford it but then changed my mind and came back with a credit card.

      How's your dog doing now? My Chihuahua passed away last week. When did you find out that your dog had heart murmur?

      @@standforhumanitariancauses4756 it was about 4 years prior. At first it was a small one. My cat has had one her whole life for 15 years and never progressed. She will probably put live me, (that b*tch) lol. Momo is getting worse. Some days are better than others. Upped his pain meds and about to do x rays and other test to see if there is other medicine that can help. To be honest my baby is driving me nuts. I can't sleep and neither can he

      Golden star everyday for the rest of the dog’s life. You can also go to a compounding pharmacy and get the medication made into a smaller capsule (powder) form.

      Vetmedin. It helped my dog for a year and now her symptoms are back. She faints when she gets excited...its awful and extremely traumatic to watch every day. We have another Cardiologist appointment in a week. She is a 17.5 Bichon Maltese. I know she's old but she still wants to play and again she can't.

    Surgery IS available overseas with high success rates on the various heart conditions. My cardio doctor outright lied about it, which they all seem to...so my dog died. You all need to know that they can get help other than pills outside the U.S. Japan, and London, among other areas. Yes, it's expensive, but if your dog is too young to die and you can get things rolling immediately, you can save your dog most likely!

      How much is the surgery? what's the success rate? My dog passed away last week. It's been really difficult.
