Heart Murmur Supplements

Lsonshine821 Dec 03, 2009 10:33 AM

Hello. My German Shepherd Puppy (15 weeks) has a grade 2 heart murmur. I would like to supplement her diet in order to help her heart murmur.
I have heard that L-Carnitine and Taurine are a good choice. Do you recommend these supplements? If so how much per day? She is 30lbs currently.
Also any suggestions for natural heartworm and flea prevention? Im not willing to put chemicals into her body.
Thanks so much!!!!
Lauren

In addition, I suggest Jiao gu lan, hawthorn, and Standard Process Cardiotrophin pmg, as well as a low potency of homeopathic Strophanthus on a daily basis. Since your dog is still young, there is a good chance he will outgrow it.
