my heart dog


my heart dog :: 36/52, originally uploaded by sarah ....

It's been a rough f*ing year. Jane has a heart murmer and it is getting worse, she hasn't been feeling well over the past 3 days, and she had X-rays yesterday and her heart is now enlarged, from being fine 8 months ago, it is something I would hope wouldn't happen so quickly, essentially she is in Heart failure. So we've started her on heart meds and I hope she will be OK.

Jane is my little undercovers snuggle bug, and even on a good day it is hard to get her out of bed.

I'm so sorry to hear she's not doing so well at the moment. I hope everything gets better. She's one stunning dog.

Sarah sorry to hear about Jane's heart. If it is any help my old Cavalier Riley suffered with a terrible murmur and heart failure at 5 years old - on the heart meds Vetmedin and Fortekor he managed to live for four more happy years. Hopefully the meds for Jane will help her as well.

I found your perro pic via popurls. Just wanted to give you some hope; I have a little poodle/terrier/?? that's getting on in years, and four years ago she came down with a heart murmur, congestive heart failure, the whole bit.

The vet did some tests, and put her on a combination of a diuretic and pimobendan.

It worked wonders; within a few weeks she was back to her normal self, and that was four years ago. Today she's ~14 and still going strong.

Anyway, thought you'd want to hear what worked. Good luck with your cute pup. :)

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune--without the words,
And never stops at all...

Hi, I'm a newbie here, but I already want to bring all the benefits of me :) So, I want to share my experience with you..
9 days ago, accidentally, i had found the Mobile Phone TV...and I was so delighted with this application
that I decided to talk to you :)

I consider myself a bit of a road warrior. I am on and off jets and through airports at least twice,
usually 4 times a week. I can catch up on news, watch a Discovery program, check up on the stock market or just find something interesting.
The live guide works like cable at home and the connection speed is very good. All in ALL - I RATE A 5 Star program!

but I do not want to leave any links here, so you can email me fairyalexiss@gmail.com
and i will give you the site of this unusual program :)

(but please don't PM me, because it's so difficult to communicate in such kind of way)

so, I hope I was helpful to you)) see you in next posts ..

sincerely
your Alexis....

p.s. English is not my native language, so sorry for any mistakes :)
