I had a bitch that was born with PDA.  Bought her as a show prospect and when 
she went in for her 3rd set of shots and exam my vet heard the heart murmur.  
At the time he wanted to wait and see if it cleared as puppies sometimes 
outgrow them.  At around a year it was still very present and she was rather 
thin. She had no lack of vigor though, and I had them perform the operation.  
Operation was a success and she lived to be 11 years old.  I don't think I 
would do the operation on a very young dog, but I think it is pretty common 
now.  This was back in 1990 when Katie had her operation.
