Some puppies have what is called an "innocent" heart murmur that goes away by the time they are about six months old. Did the breeder take the puppy to a cardiologist to have her heart evaluated? Then you would know if you were dealing with something serious or not.
Did she have her vet grade the puppy's knees? If the luxation is low (grade 1 or 2), most likely she won't need surgery if you are careful about not letting her jump up on furniture. |
