Breathing

  • My dog is very lethargic and panting a lot. We went to the vet yesterday and they took blood, urine, etc...., but she seems to have gotten worse. I took her temperature today and it is 101.3...normal. She is just very out of it, and seems to be depressed. Also the panting and breathing heavily is bad. She's a golden retriever, 7 years old, on thyroid medication(soloxine), has allergies(takes an antihistamine daily too), and tends to have a very sensitive belly. She may also be having an increase in the number of times she is urinating. Or it just may be because of the hot weather, and I am giving her a lot more water daily. I don't know if I should take her to...

  • Dog flu?

    My 11 year old dog has been very lethargic lately and his eye membrane is coming up on his eyes. Is it the flu or a cold? He has also had several episodes over the last few months where he breathes in very sharply almost like a wheez and this will go on for several minutes and sometimes even longer. The vet told us it was like a backwards hiccup. Are these related?

  • Have I made my dog sick?

    I gave my dog a tiny bit (The size of a thumbnail) of a veggie patty. she has been sick with a staph infection (internal) and has been on antibiotics for a month. She is still losing weight. 9 lbs lost. she has a good appetite but is lethargic and has pale inner eyelids and gums. Vet said her RBC is now 15 and her albumin level is still high. Could that be caused from the bit of the veggie patty?

  • breathing

    I have a cat that is almost 13 years old and she has been breathing funny for a long time. I mentioned this to my vet back in the summer and she thought maybe it was because it was hot. She is still breathing hard and I took her in to the vet and they thought she might have asthma. Gave me some prednisolone tablets for her but she got diarhea so I stopped them. She is losing weight I think but still eating, not coughing or sneezing. Not as active as she used to be. Talked to the vet about cutting the pill in half and trying again. Is there some way to tell if she has something else. Should I ash about getting a blood test or x-ray etc. The vet did mention that...

  • I am very worried because we recently noticed that my 7 y/o dog has a distended stomach especially after eating. He is an active male of healthy weight and does not seem to have any other problems. We recently noticed that his stomach is swollen especially after he eats. He is still active and has no loss of appetite. He went to the vet Friday where they took x-rays and did blood work. Clear fluid came out when they took it from his abdomen indicating there was no blood at the time. X-rays showed it didn't seem like it was the kidneys and also that there may be something there but it was obscured by the fluid. Just today, I noticed he whines when he lays down and I think...
