Heart murmur
-
You may also want to keep your eye out for Cardiac Clinics hosted by local dog clubs. Often they get really good rates. Usually they have do auscultations and if indicated some have echocardiograms at reduced costs.

she said she only knew one woman who had a B with a murmur and she was fine so it wasnt anything to worry about..
seems to me shes making the assumption that all dogs with a murmur are the same and no murmur is serious.. which kinda turned me off to her even more..
im calling to make the next appointment in the next few days for a month from now.. he said to make it a late appointment so he can do the xray, if the murmurs still there, and be able to go over it while we are still there..
uughh i feel like i've been living at the vets office lately.. maggies been twice in the last month, and rocky went today for his annual and next month for the next visit and mia is getting fixed in two weeks

Would you mind saying, if you have not already, who Rocky's breeder is? Those comments that she made are just as you think, an assumption…. is not a good way to look at things... all health concerns should be taken seriously by breeders... just a things like temperament are.....
-
I think i mentioned it before it a post but his breeder is doris daniels.. Djakomba's Rocky Balboa is his registered name..

Did you register him with AKC? I don't find him in Sally W's data base of pedigree's or on the AKC site?

I haven't had any B's with a heart murmur, but have owned seveal dogs with heart murmur's. One lived until he was 18! A light murmur could mean nothing or everything. I would suggest you do all the research you can, and definitely obtain at least a second opinion. There are things you should be watching for. The most prominent is a cough. If there is a cough present you will definitely want that checked out as that is a symptom (usually) of a heart condition. Just my opinion of course.

supposedly he was registered when we got him (he was 1 year old).. ive got his certified pedigree from the AKC but you're right he is not on that website because i have looked before so i guess he wasn't. his Dam is on the OFFA website, CH Djakomba's Baby Blossom and his Sire is on the B Database but not on the OFFA website i dont think. i know hes passed on. Apex Ringleader of Djakomba.
-
Theres a number under his name on the certificate: HP16310901
i dont know if that means anything

That is his registration number/litter number that would have been assigned to him when Doris registered the litter. In order for it to be completed, each (what are called blue slips) for each pup with a number on it must be sent in to AKC, so I am guessing that she never completed the registration.
As a FYI on registration numbers, the "HP" with the first 6 numbers given are the same on a litter, the thing that ID's each pup is the last two, ie: 01, 02, 03 and they are given one number for each pup in the litter.
Doesn't look like she registered any of the pups from that litter. Too bad too, since it really messes up Sally's data base… I will let her know about your guy and she can put him on there.
Good news is that I know most of the dogs in both the sire and dam's pedigrees and have not heard of heart problems.
-
What is his date of birth?

I just put that number in the AKC website and it says registration complete in jan 06:

And sorry if again I asked this, have you DNA tested him for Fanconi, I didn't see him on the OFA database, but maybe you just did it? I would highly suggest if you have not that you order the cheek swab.

sorry, my error, but that is good that he was registered.. but I will send the info to Sally W to have her add to her database, didn't come up when I just used his name….
-
no we haven't done the test yet but i've heard of the cheek swab so i gotta look into it. I gotta get it for all three still. Maggie's got no written history and we don't know anything about her not even her exact birth date and shes around 4 so we should be getting hers done anyway.
and not a problem about the registration stuff, i had no idea anyway haha i have Mia's form that i never got around to sending so i have to do that too.
-
Is Mia listed on Sally W's site?
-
i haven't registered her yet so no. i actually just went and found her papers and am trying to figure out a good name.

If you give me her AKC litter number, date of birth, Sire and Dam's name and AKC numbers and the name you want to give her, I will pass that information on to Sally. Otherwise she will not get it….even after you register her.
-
okay great. I think I came up with a name but my boyfriends gotta agree. so i'll let you know when we decide!
