My breeder never told me about the murmur and I got paperwork from her vet with a clean bill of health from both dogs and their first round of vacs. Luckily I took them in 3 weeks after I got them for their second puppy round and that is when my vet found it and told me. I almost called the breeder but at that point they were probably better off with me and I kept them. My vet said there was NO WAY ANY vet would have missed the murmur he had!
