| Off to vet with Benjamin Button Just leaving to take Benji in. He's been sneezing and congested since a few days after I got him - so a couple weeks now! My normal vet is out if ideas since Benedryl and Doxy didn't help at all - getting another opinion from a vet I generally only use for my Aiyana who has alot of health issues - she'd a great vet and I pray she'll have some other ideas to get this under control! It seems to be getting worse instead of better!

| Just got home. Vet and I are trying new approach. Put him on a nasal drop and a different antibiotic, and also added on Guifenison to help with the mucas and congestion. Hoping this new approach solves the problem!

| Is he doing any better today? Guaifenesin is an expectorant, so it won't ease his cough. Did they not want to put him on Robitussin to help stop the cough? I don't know, but I would worry that too much coughing could damage his trachea.
