Charlie was diagnosed with a heart murmur in 2020 at one of his routine wellness appointments. This means that the blood flow throughout the heart is making a “whooshing” sound due to abnormal flow through the heart. After a work up and echocardiogram, he was found to have mitral valve disease. Due to mild heart enlargement, He was started on a heart medication called Pimobendan. In 2022, Charlie began showing clinical signs like coughing and he was then started on Lasix along with the Pimobendan.

For a long time, he was being managed on both medications until this past August, when the coughing returned and was worse than it used to be. He was having trouble especially when he was active and playing. A recheck ECG was conducted, which showed worsening mitral valve disease.
Charlie then had to be started on anti-arrhythmia medication called Diltiazam along with the Lasix and Pimobendan.
It was quite the journey finding a combination of medications that finally regulated his unique case of heart disease.

In January of 2023, Charlie was unfortunately attacked by a large dog and had to have reconstructive surgery of his abdomen. Despite being on 2 different heart medications at the time, he underwent a smooth surgery and healed beautifully!

At his recheck exam this month, his symptoms were much improved with only an occasional cough. In the comments is a video of him with high energy levels and playing like a puppy! For an almost 14 year old dog with heart disease, he is doing super well and we are continuing to monitor him so that he receives the quality of life he deserves.

Isla’s recovery story!

This is Isla. She came to the states in 2017, from the Virgin Islands, after major hurricanes wrecked the islands. When she arrived, it was very clear she had a spine injury that affected her mobility. She found a loving home that rehabilitated her and gave her a great quality of life she had never experienced. Fast forward to this year…she started showing signs of her old spine injury affecting her mobility again. Her veterinarian started her on Librela, an osteoarthritis pain medication. This is an injection medication that your veterinarian administers monthly. Isla’s family noticed pain relief after the first injection and a couple months later she started running around with her house mate again. Librela has been a game changer for some of the senior dogs with mobility issues so consider this product if you are seeing signs of slowing down in your baby!

😂😂 Featuring Obi, who is our tech student Destiny’s pet!
