Anyway, not trying to scare you or even suggest that that's what's going on. Oh, we knew my lab had an enlarged heart but it was worse than any of the vets suspected. She's doing much better now that she's on medicine for congestive heart failure and water retention. |
I hope its not that. Im about to take her to the vet to check out some other stuff so I think I am goign to ask the vet about her weight becasue I am almost positive she has gained more since I put her on the diet. Being an indoor dog she doesnt get as much excersize that she needs and I really really keep meaning to start going on walks with her. I am being a very bad mommy!
