Sadie has been getting bloodwork since she was 9. This August she will be 12. I had to ask for the bloodwork to be done - no vet ever suggested it. I have been to several vets over Sadie's years and haven't met one that stands out to me.

Right now Sadie is dealing with a heart murmur that started about a year or 2 ago. It is still mild but it's not something that will go away. The vet made no suggestions on what I can do for it except to feed her a senior diet but I have begun giving her supplements that I read are helpful (Wysong's c-biotic and EFA). I hope she can survive many years with this.
