I am SO happy he is ok. crazy..... I guess I assumed you were seeing a specialist.

Continued good wishes for Teddy.
Oh sorry...had the med confused. He was not on Sildenafil. But, I guess I assumed a specialist and it was not.

Just a little FYI....over the years I have seen so many small dogs misdiagnosed with heart disease based on a vet reading an xray saying the heart was enlarged. These small dogs' rads often look like that .. it is always best to get a second opinion and in my humble opinion, that of a boarded specialist/cardiologist.

Again, hoping the best for Teddy.
