I have a 13-1/2 year old, female Boston Terrier. I the last year or two our vet said she has a heart murmur. It started as a '1', and recently was a '3' on a scale of 1-6... but the last visit for her annual a month ago, had not gotten any worse. 3 nights ago when people came to the house, and she got excited (as she always does), her legs went out from under her, she slumped to the ground and peed. After that seemed fine. Then last night, she did it again. Someone came to the house, she got excited, and you could see the strained breathing (and it had a different sound), her feet going out from under her, and her slumping to her side to the ground and peeing. She's down for a minute, and then slowly gets up. She seems 'concerned' about what happened or embarrassed... or not sure what happened and confused. But she seems to go back to her normal routine. She's eating fine, drinking fine. I'm taking her into the vet tomorrow, for what I found to be a bad molar in the top of her mouth last week, to get pulled and her teeth cleaned. I am thinking this will be a bigger issue to have looked at.
Do you have any questions you'd recommend me asking? As with all those who love their pets... this is so hard to watch. They are our children.
Thanks for your time.
