Again, I really do NOT believe that the tech said that CT is not serious. People tend to overreact to the honking sound.....and sometimes these pups are honking but NOT in respiratory distress. There is a difference! I am sure that someone was probably reacting to a pup who had it and the tech was trying to make people understand that the honking is going to stay...it is when the respirations become more rapid and the pup starts to lose oxygenation that it is serious.
Most vets and techs always, always minimize rather than maximize since it is best for the owners to remain CALM...that is best also for the pups! The key is to educate a person to know when it is an emergency..otherwise they will be at the vet and/or EC almost daily!!!! |
