| I have been thinking about Winky. I am so sorry it wasn't better news. I don't know anything about this condition, but I will continue to pray for Winky. I know he has the best people looking after is needs.

| I've already talked to you, but I just wanted to say that I think you're doing one heck of a job in giving Winky the absolute best life. Here's to Winky blowing that prognosis away

| I wish I could offer something useful to you & Winky but, the only thing I know of cardiomyopathy is from the movie, Beaches. I believe the character, Barbara Hershey contracted hers via a "virus". After doing a little reading, it was interesting to know that this condition is seen more often in "large/giant breed dogs", Great Danes, Dobies all the way down to Cocker Spaniels but, no mention of Yorkies. NAVC - North American Veterinary Conference (2005 Orlando, FL) http://www.ivis.org/proceedings/navc...E/044.pdf?LA=1 They also say it can be "familial"...that kind of contradicts what Winky's Vet said, doesn't it? I am so sorry to hear the news from Winky's Vet was not anything of what we all hoped for...hugs to you all!

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | Winky is lucky to have you guys in his corner. I have no doubt he's had the best life and will continue to do so for as long as possible. You get a rare opportunity to say goodbye to him, and I know you'll be doing that with hugs every day. Sending my best.

| I'm sorry to hear it is DCM. I have seen many pts outlive prognoses. Winky might surprise you how well he can compensate in spite of the DCM. This will be my prayer. Winky surprises everyone how well he does.
