I had a little girl that developed CHF when she was only 6 years old...I took her to a wonderful vet, and he put her on 3 different medications, two of which were able to be discontinued after about 4-5 years..........and my baby girl died in my arms at the ripe old age of 16! So, like someone else has said, with the right medications, these babies can do very well for many years. Watch his diet, watch his exercise level / tolerance, and your baby has a good chance of living many more years! |
