Happy Wednesday! 🐾

Happy Wednesday from ZOE! 😍

Zoe's recheck echocardiogram revealed that she has a very mild form of a congenital heart condition called subaortic stenosis. This refers to a narrowing (stenosis) in the region of the heart just below the aortic valve, where blood leaves the left ventricle (the main pumping chamber of the heart) to enter the aorta. The narrowing results in an obstruction to forward blood flow that, in severe cases, requires the left ventricle to become stronger and thicker in order to send blood into the aorta. Abnormally fast and turbulent blood flow downstream of the obstruction can disrupt the normal function of the nearby aortic valve, resulting in backward flow across this valve (called aortic regurgitation). Fortunately for Zoe, the degree of her subaortic stenosis is extremely mild. In addition, because she has reached full adulthood, the severity of her condition is not expected to increase in the future. YAY! 🥳

Regarding the mild thickening of her mitral valve and very small amount of backward flow across it, this has proven to be remarkably stable over time. Although some degree of heart chamber enlargement was noted during one evaluation in September of 2018 (leading to the use of pimobendan), this now appears to have been an anomalous time point. Following previous normalization of heart chamber size and then discontinuation of the pimobendan last September, Zoe continues to be free of any apparent heart chamber enlargement!!! Best news EVER!! 👏🏽

As much as we will miss Zoe's visits, we do not have a plan for further cardiology appointments for Zoe. We love you Zoe! ♥️

Feeling "Lucky?" 🍀

Lucky was originally diagnosed with congestive heart failure and was started on cardiac medications. Thankfully, his diuretic was able to be discontinued and he remained stable with normal atrial size and the absence of diuresis, which is excellent news!! 🙌🏽

His most recent visit with Dr. Rausch DVM, DACVIM, suggests that his original diagnosis of congestive heart failure may have been associated with a sudden tear of one of the tendons within his heart that attaches to his mitral valve. Such cases can lead to congestive heart failure and this heart failure can cause serious trouble. However, there are some dogs who are fortunate enough to respond well to medications and over time have their heart become more adept at handling this change in mitral insufficiency.

We feel confident that Lucky is one of those lucky dogs!! 🥳

Happy National Mutt Day!

National Mutt Day, also known as National Mixed Breed Dog Day, is a day to celebrate mixed-breed dogs and raise awareness about the high number of them waiting for adoption in shelters nationwide. National Mutt Day aims to promote the acceptance and rescue of mixed-breed dogs, which make up 80 percent of shelter dogs. Although purebred dogs in shelters are typically adopted quickly, mixed-breed dogs often face the stigma of being less desirable, leading to longer stays in shelters. Their unique qualities are frequently overlooked, as many people are unaware of the *positive* traits that a mix of dog breeds can offer.

strongly believes that all dogs deserve a loving home and we hope you will consider a mutt as your next pet when visiting a shelter!
