Well, Copper wound up not having the surgery today. Last night he developed a little cough and I told the vet about it this morning and he checked him out first. He has kennel cough! I have no idea where he picked that up. The VA told me that it is airborne and that they can get it even if they are in your house all day long.....SOooo, I guess we will have to reschedule after he gets off antibiotics.
