Hi,
I’ve never posted on here before, but thought I would chime on on this as it’s a very familiar story – Our dog Rosie (who we only recently lost) had this exact heart murmur condition – she just collapsed out of the blue (usually when she got over excited).
When we first brought her to the vet, he said there was a chance that if she collapsed again she might not get back up, but she actually proved him wrong and went on with it for quite a while (though if I had to guess, I’d say maybe whoever previously owned Lucy here may have witnessed her collapsing and that’s why she was given up in the first place… which is very sad to see…).
Anyways, whatever it was about these specific tablets, she seemed determined not to eat them. We tried every trick we could think of, but she always found a way to eat around the tablet… eventually my mum found the best solution was to cut up some sausages and push the pills inside so she couldn’t even see them – worked a treat!!
Hope that helps
