my boxer was diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat when she was young, but the vets have said it sounds normal now.

Maybe get a second opinion? I did when Max needed ACL surgery since it was $1200 I wanted to be damn sure.

i have one with a heart murmur and one with irregular heart beat right now. according to the vets. they have no ill effects on them as of yet. and they run and play as hard as any dog I've seen.

From what I understand it's very common in Boxers. He could grow out of it.
