Re: DOG with Leaky Heart Valve....

I use Crataegus pretty often, for my own arrhythmias and threadiness. I also used it for my OLD dog, who was ill with everything, one of which was a murmur, and who was on Lasix towards his passing. It seems to have an instantaneous strengthening and quieting effect. 30c or 200c is commonly available, and I would be cautious - using one dose and waiting to see.
He's drinking water because he needs it; the Lasix pulls fluid out of his tissues, where he has been accumulating it around his heart. But his body interprets this pooling of fluid as a lack of hydration elsewhere.
The communicator should be able to get a read on his desires and intentions. Dogs often stay with us longer than they might, because they are concerned about our ability to get along without them. This is especially true, perhaps, of "heart" dogs, who come to help us. Ask what HE wants, and give him permission to tell you.
As long as he is eating, even a bit, he probably wants to stay longer:)
