Did he have any of these problems when you brought him home? Anyway, I'm glad you're such a good mom and getting him the medical care he needs. |
Honestly, in the entire time he's been with me I did not notice anything of the sort until just recently. He never sneezed, coughed or gagged until I first noticed the tapeworms in his stool about a week and a half ago. Although (and this might be me being paranoid again) the vet did not do an xray or anything like that for his diagnosis. He massaged his trachea and he noticed that it was sensitive. He listened to his breathing and checked his lungs too and said that they were normal. Is this a general way to diagnose bronchitis? He didn't make a big deal about it, but I thought bronchitis is something you cannot completely cure?
