My little man has this too Hi, just wanted to post a message offering my support and advice if needed. In February this year my little man, George, was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy. His heart was beating incredibly fast. This came as a terribly shock and we were devastated. He was put...

Hi, I am so sorry to hear about Chopper. Poor little baby. Just under a week ago I took my boy, George (age 6), to the vet for his skin condition and the vet detected an irregular heart beat. He said George's heart was erratic and chaotic. I was devastated. I lost my first boxer to...
