I don't know anything about murmurs in dogs, but my son had one when he was born. It was terrifying and there were lots of tests and follow ups for years. But the long and short of it is that it does not effect his life AT ALL. In fact, a few years after we found out about his we learned that I've had one all my life,too and didn't even know it. I know some murmurs are serious, but some are virtually nothing. I don't think Joseph's isn't even enough to avoid the draft if there were one.
