I had to take Macy to the vet yesterday. You may remember this post where I talked about her cardiology appointment last month. The cardiologist she saw, who I loved, was just a moonlighter and had never seen her or listened to her heart before. He told me her heart didn't sound that bad. I was a little confused since her heart murmur has been sooo loud in the past, but I just figured he had listened to a ton of dog hearts and to him, her heart sounded ok. Anyway, the vet that I took her to yesterday was the one that pretty much saved her life 3 years ago, as you may remember me talking about in this post. She has heard her heart murmur for the past 3 years. Yesterday, she listened and listened and listened. She said her heart sounded great, that she could barely hear the murmur. She asked what I was doing differently and if I was doing any holistic stuff. I told her all I did was change her food to Royal Canine for Chihuahuas and their hearts and that I was feeding her carrots. No more junk food and table scraps, well, not very often anymore...She let me listen to her heart and I couldn't believe my ears! Comparatively speaking, her murmur that was once a 4/6 is now almost hard to hear! Can you believe it?!?!! Praise the Lord!!! I think maybe He knows that if something ever happens to my way-to-spoiled princess of a dog that I will have to check myself into Laurette for a few days months. God is awesome!!!
Happy Birthday Macy Girl! You are one of the most wonderful gifts in the whole entire world!
