What is wrong with Bentley? I'm curious, what standard tests do you have to do before the cardiologist will see you? (EKG, etc) My regular vet detected a murmur in my Scooter and sent in a referral to the cardiologist. No labs or other tests were done at that time. When we went to the cardiologist , he did a cardiac echo ( color flow ultrasound ) and detected the problem with that. We were then referred to a surgeon who did Scooter's first set of blood work and chest xray.
Woogie Man~I hope your little one gets better soon. I'm sorry you had to go through that.
