i know i should changed vets, so that i can get a second opinion or should i say 4th, but the thing is the vet i have right now has the best reviews that are near me. all the others arent good because they have terrrible reviews from other people
You might want to consult a cardiologist. An enlarged heart can cause the coughing you are describing. Unfortunately, pet shop puppies can be born with all sorts of serious health conditions.
