A normal, healthy 5 month old does not have a heart attack unless there is a problem with the puppy heart from the beginning...perhaps a hole, valve problem, severe murmur...the chances of a 5 month old puppy suddenly having a heart attack is the same as a 5 month old child...there has to be existing heart problems...IMO
I am very sorry..
Can you speak to the breeders vet and see what they found at the well puppy check before it left the breeder and if there was none, then the breeder has no clue how the heart was...except from the fact it could feel it beating...
