Innocent, flow murmurs. These murmurs are caused by normal turbulent blood flowing across heart valves of young dogs. These low-grade murmurs (less than a grade 2) decrease with age as the heart matures and are not associated with congenital heart disease. The vet will do a recheck in 4 weeks to see if he/she can still hear a murmur.

I would think the above...although great news...would mean the pup isn't unhealthy then.
