Our holistic remedies have been able to help Asta, an adorable 13 years young Boston Terrier with severe heart failure. We’re thankful to Brent, Asta’s daddy, to share this wonderful review with us. This sweet fur kid was diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure and arrhythmia 6 months ago. After trying the conventional medicines alone, her daddy tried our holistic remedy, NHV Hearty heart. It is helping Asta cope with the disease a lot better.
I give this to my 13.5-year-old Boston Terrier twice a day who was diagnosed with CHF and arrhythmia 6 months ago. Her most worrisome symptom from heart disease was syncope. Late at night Asta would fall over, arch her back, moaning loudly in distress, blank out, then pee on herself. These episodes are significantly less severe and frequent since hearty heart. Instead of every 2-3 weeks, she’s only had two attacks in the past 3 months. One of the attacks also coincided with missing her evening dose. Asta has also been on enalapril and Lasix prior to hearty heart but those meds didn’t seem to have the same positive results.

Does the Heart Murmur Support Kit help with prevention?
These supplements are great for prevention, especially for breeds like King Charles Spaniels which are very prone to heart disease. It's never too early to support healthy heart function.
Once heart murmur symptoms in your cat have been seen, you should also consult with your vet. They may recommend their own heart murmur treatment for your cat, and it will be safe to give alongside NHV’s natural herbal remedies.
My new pet is a breed prone to heart murmurs. Can I use these supplements now, or should I wait?
These are gentle herbal formulas and as such, they do take time to work in the body. You should notice a difference in about 3-4 weeks. Since every animal is different it's a good idea to check in with us around week 2 so our pet experts can suggest any dosage changes for your pet.
What are common heart murmur symptoms in cats?
A heart murmur is simply the sound the heart makes when the valves do not close properly for some reason. It is important to find the underlying cause of a heart murmur. Some common symptoms of heart disease are lethargy, panting, and coughing.
Is a heart murmur present from birth or is it something my pet can develop?
Heart murmurs can either be present from birth or can develop later in life. Generally, heart murmurs symptoms in cats and dogs that are very young may resolve as they grow (but not always).

Hawthorn acts as a cardiotonic, which helps stabilize the heart’s activity based on what the feline heart needs; either to be stimulated or reduce activity. Hawthorn has traditionally been used for heart failure, heart palpitations, heart weakness, and for the circulatory system. Hawthorne works by dilating the vessels and the coronary arteries, which improves the metabolic process and the blood supply to the heart and the rest of the cat’s body. It helps regulate your cat’s heart rate, coronary flow, and blood pressure. Hawthorne also has a soothing and sedative effect, which helps reduce stress.
