My 10 weeks old male Yorkie (Niko) has been diagnosed with kennel cough over a week ago. They put him on antibiotics but he began to have a blood in his stool so with the vet advice we discontinued giving it to him. He was still on cough suppressant.

Last night I took him to the emergency because I panicked, as he was lethargic, had warm nose, has had not eaten ANYTHING (even treats) for over 10 hours and would not take his cough suppressant for nothing. Well, everything turned out OK. His X-rays did not show any signs of pneumonia, blood sugar was OK at 114 and he did not have a fever.

Anyway, today we noticed a blood vessel in his eye and something on the outside of the eye as well. I do not know how to call that, but it is a very tiny dot.

There is no discharge from the eyes or anything.

Should I be worried or it will just go away as we give him the new antibiotic?

If someone knows anything about it, please let me know.

Thank you

Damian
