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.

When I spoke to him today, he said the murmur was a Grade 2.
