...but i know more of you post in here. I have posted in all about dogs about giant breeds having heart failure, if anyone on here has any experience of this i would really appreciate you answering the post, it would mean a lot to me.
Thank you.

you could try on here

it's a great dane owners forum, they are a nice bunch and very helpful, doesn't have to be about a great dane either.
not sure of the breed of your dog but great dane's do suffer with heart probs.
haven't had to deal with it myself but hope you manage to find some help and support.
