We went to the cardiologist today. The good news is that other than a teeny heart murmur, Isabelle's heart is fine. It's in pretty good shape for a pug her age and in her condition. No enlarged heart, no congestive heart failure. So that's great news.
She still has a cough that we have to address though. We aren't sure whether her breathing problems are in her upper or lower airways. Her regular vet has to read the cardiologist's report, and then we'll figure out the next steps. She got a new cough medicine that will hopefully help better than the syrup.
In the meantime, Isabelle is enjoying her new heated bed in her pugjamas.
Hugs for a good lil pug heart Isabelle! Hope the cough gets better soon.

Oh, Isabelle, that is super news about your heart! I'm just so happy to hear it! And I'm lovin' the idea of a heated bed...I usually lay on the vents in the winter to get cozy, but a bed is obviously way better! Sleep tight in your PJs.

Glad to hear the good news about your heart, Isabelle. I'm sure they'll figure out that cough thing soon enough.
ReplyDeleteI am totally jealous of that heated bed! I need to get my 'rents to get me one of those so I don't have to keep jumping up into their bed when the night gets chilly!

ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear your little pug heart is OK! Your new bed and pj's look really comfy. Is it hard keeping your Mom out of that heated bed? My Mom would scoot me out and take it over.
