hi ,
I ran into an interesting problem. I took Samurai to get neutered on Monday. no problems with that part of him. ha-ha. but 4 days later he kinda had a small cough. ( i have gone through Kennel cough with another dog years ago) I took him in on Saturday didn't want it to get worse. they took an X ray and behind his ribs his trachea narrowed and he has an infection/inflammation. So he is on 3 kinds of pills. I was told that nothing needs to be done but this may happen again.
I know that this is common in yorkies but what could have caused the flare up? the surgery or the big halo collar that he was wearing?
other than that he is very healthy and weights 8 pounds at 6 months old.
everything he eats is moving right along through him. I am just really concerned and worried....
