"May be a slight murmur....." doesn't sound too serious, if that is exactly what your vet said.
A lot of murmurs are termed "innocent" or "benign" and are not really harmful at all. Hopefully, this is the type that your little pup has.
You should follow-up with your vet and find out more about the type of murmur your little dog has. Unfortunately, sometimes they come up with these "off the wall remarks" -- knowing nothing is seriously wrong them - but don't realize how much they can get us worrying.
Again - find out more about your pup's murmur.
I work in cardiology, and believe me, we have many patients with harmless murmurs. I have one myself.
Good luck! Carol Jean |
