Congestive Heart Failure

I am somewhat new here. Been a member, just haven't posted. I have a 13 year old male cocker spaniel. Back in February the vet said he had a heart murmur. He had a slight cough. Less than a month later he got to where he was having a very hard time breathing....rushed him back to the vet, this time CHF. He was put on lasix as needed and Vetmedin. My heart is breaking. He has lost weight, eats very little (no food has that low salt) and to top it off he has arthritis in one hip. His cough is worse. Vet says this medicine is the last there is for CHF. Anyone been there or there now with some advise?
