Hi,
I have been reading your story on puppers and her battle with MVD. I know all about MVD I have a 9 year old tri called scooby and he has been battling MVD since october 2009. There have been so many times especially during the last year when I thought we were going to lose him but he seems to fight back , when they are loved to bits they seem to hang on......
One drug that scooby is on besides vetmedin is called 'Prilactone' , I consulted with a cardiologist who operated on scooby's heart when he was a puppy and told him about the fainting episodes or 'syncope' when they seem to faint and stop breathing , he recommended this drug to help and it seems to work, scooby has still had syncopes but they are not as frequent or as severe...
I wish you and puppers all the best and if you have any questions on MVD just ask I have probably asked them already.
Hugs
Sharon and Scooby
