| Acid Reflux???? So he is fine about the Collapesed Traquea part of it, we have learned to dealt with it, instead of a collar i got him a harnes wich works perfect(reminds me i have to buy a new one b/c last weekend he chew it and broke it, those baby teeth are very sharp he also took a love bite at my mom and made her bleed now she is scared of him... its kind of funny) now we are dealing with acid reflux, I'm giving him some pepcid ac and it seems to help and i think found the source of the problem and it sucks for him the DINGO BONES it looks like when i give him one its when he starts feeling bad and its always in the middle of the night, Im sorry for him but now no more Dingo Bone treats... Besides that he is doing great we will be starting puppy classes in a couple of weeks since the chewing is getting out of hand... i have to keep my shoes off his reach....I got him a shirt this weekend that says Wanna Be Doberman and one that says Tiny Dog HUGE Attitude....he loves wearing those things.

Hi can I ask what symptoms you saw first, was it the breathing or the acid or both at the same time. | |

| My Hailey was on liquid Zantac twice a day, around the calendar, for acid reflux. We took her to an internal medicine specialist for help treating her pancreatitis, and he said she could be on it viritually forever. It was pricey, but a bottle lasted six months, and she was worth every penney and a lot more. I miss her, I miss her, I miss her so much. |
