Hello from Colorado! This is Moose - he will be 4 in December which is a MAJOR miracle!
Moosey was born with 3 independent congenital cardiac conditions (his pulmonary artery is too small, his pulmonary valve is too big and stiff, and he has a FIVE chambered heart!) We were going to euthanize him around 4 months of age. We are SO lucky we live a stones throw from the best vet program in the US! CSU turns out more cardiologists than any other program in the country.
Moose is by far the happiest, sweetest dog I’ve ever had. He greets each day like it is a grand adventure and lives to the fullest. He has zero fear of the vets and vet hospitals…. as a matter of fact, this past spring the gal that checks oncology patients in found out Moose had been to Cardiology on her day off and contacted me to tell me how disappointed she was that she missed my boy! She sees thousands of dogs a year and that is the kind of impression Moose makes on the world. We could all learn from him!
He would be an awesome therapy dog, but I’m not sure his heart could tolerate the excitement he would experience on a daily basis.
