Hi all,
A bit of a traumatic day - we had a planned visit for the vets for pre-op checks prior to neutering in the next few weeks for both our boys. Just before we went Tanner's back leg seemed to be giving way with some involuntary kicking - never has happened before. Anyway it had stopped when we got to the vets who could find nothing wrong, prescribed rest and a watchful eye. So far so good. Then when she was examining Whiskey she said his heart has an irregular heart beat - could not hear a murmur. She has left it to us to see if we want him to have a heart ultrasound scan. Just looking to see what other owners would do, when there are no other symptoms. He is 9 mths old. Tanner is getting neutered next Friday, we were not planning to do Whiskey until April anyway. Any thoughts, experiences welcome.
