bgeier, I was taking a shower for work and just thought of something. Do you have the capacity to take a short video clip on your telephone? If so, you might want to do that of Baker's coughing and take it to his vet appointment.
I did that right before our trip to the vet. (One clip for Vivi and one for Piccolo having an episode). My vet said he was very glad I did that and gave a diagnosis and prescribed medicine right away.
For whatever reasons, my girls do not always display symptoms at the vet like I see at home, so these videos really helped me. I have always wondered if they have an adrenaline rush at the vet, from being nervous, and this overshadows their symptoms. Hope that makes sense.
Anyway, hope all goes well today for you and Baker.
