Did the vet rule out kennel cough? Did you get him at a Pet store? Our last dog, Corky, had collapse trachea but he was coughing besides wheezing and hacking and when the vet took xrays it showed that his heart was enlarged (congestive heart failure). He was on all kinds of meds and lived for a few more years (to 13) but it was so sad listening to him and seeing him looking at me with those sad eyes. He used to stand up and stretch his head and neck out and the vet said they do this to help them breath. Hope this isn't the case with your little guy but I would get it checked out. Hope he is better soon. |
