Daisy Hawkins

Daisy is an 8 year old CKC from New York AND Florida!  Daisy was diagnosed with a heart murmur level 3 out of 6 in January 2016.  She was not placed on meds until July of that year and was started on Vetmedin (Pimo).  By June 2017 her mitral valve disease had progressed and was on Vetmedin, Enalapril, Hydrocodone, Spironolactone Digoxin & Furosemide and needing diapers.  Daisy was hospitalized in June 2017 due to vomiting & dehydration, taken off Digoxin.  Her BNP was elevated to 4500 and lost 4 lbs prior to surgery.  Daisy was fit in as an emergency patient at Clinic Veterinaire Bozon on July 5, 2017.  She is a fighter and wonderful success story.  Currently, her murmur is reduced to a 3 out of 6, is stable back in Stage B, and remains only on sildenaphil to help with the pressure that remains on her heart.  No more diapers for Daisy!
