Our Riley was diagnosised with left ventricular hypertrophy and a Grade III/IV cardiac murmur at eight months. No meds....Riley has been fine. However, he has had a dry cough, several times a day, and sleeps most of the day. Appetite is excellent. I tried to listen to his heartrate, and his heart was beating so fast, I could not count the beats. No cyanosis(blue colouring), no dyspena(breathing problems), or as we nurses like to say " No SOB(short of breathe!!)." Riley is going to the vet on Thursday for a cardiac ultrasound and a chest Xray. Please keep Riley in your prayers. He will be 9 in August....Thanks...
