Hi all. My cav, Chance, is 11 1/2 and has had a heart murmur since age 5. Just recently we had to put him on mvd drugs b/c he started coughing and panting. X-rays show an enlarged heart but no fluid in lungs. His heart is so large it is pressing up against the trachia. He is on lasix, enalopril, and vetmedin. He is getting another ultrasound on Tues. Last night he was panting very heavily and would not lay his head down. I think nights are the worst for him. Anyone else experience the extremely heavy panting? Of the meds he is on, what helps this? We are working on tweaking the doses but seeing him like this is killing me. I do not want him to be in pain. Any advice is appreciated.
