Are my 4-month puppy's chronic hiccups linked to her heart murmur?

Question

Are my puppy’s chronic hiccups in any way related to her heart murmur? She’s about 4 months. Pet's info: Dog | American Pit Bull Terrier | Female | unspayed | 4 months and 10 days old | 55 lbs

Hiccups are pretty normal for puppies and I cannot think of any way they would be related to a heart murmur. Very rarely hiccups can be a sign of gastrointestinal disease but usually they are nothing to worry about. She’s a beautiful dog!
