Heart conditions experienced this young are often hereditary in nature, and your cardiologist will tell you if the condition your pup is suffering from has a hereditary one.
If so look up puppy lemon laws in your state, and see if you can hold this breeder to the letter of the law.
If she doesn't offer emotional and financial support, then please review her on here, as well as a whole host of other sites. Good breeders as you know will stand behind their puppies and even their adult dogs, and offer both emotional, knowledge, and where applicable financial support.

At the tender age of 16 weeks, you can resat assured this is congenital. That is useless information, if you have a breeder that could care less, and you have no health guarantee. Did you at least have a vet check within 48 hours of purchase, to see if the baby was healthy? You need to broadcast her name and her business all over this site, if she once again tells you she will not help with this situation....you need to tell her if she is not willing to stand by that puppy and at least refund your money if that babies dies, or pick up the costs of diagnostic testing to determine exactly what is wrong with this baby, you are going to do everything in your power to ruin her name in the dog breeding business world......this is sooooo tragic......my prayers for you and the innocent little puppy, who did not ask to be brought into this world....this woman should suffer as much as this baby is suffering.....
