thank you all for the responses! i will ask about benadryl for future reference, it never hurts to ask! pixie is tolerating her medicine pretty well and doing about the same....
ann - asthma was never mentioned but last year they did several xrays of her trachea and chest, would that be able to rule it in or out? that is a good point, i will definitelty ask her dr about it. pixie is very, very active and never gets out of breath and rarely have i ever seen her pant. the first "episode" she was about 7 months old and right now she is just over 18 months, i'm not sure if that's a factor. i am not familiar with either of those meds that you have listed for seasonal allergies but i will look them up and also see what her dr says about that as well....
last year, they suspected her to have kennel cough because i adopted her from a shelter. after she started meds, it cleared up and i have never heard another cough, sneeze, or wheeze out of her until a couple days ago. thankfully, she is not nearly as bad as last year and i hope it doesn't progress to that.
thanks so much everyone for your input! i appreciate it so much! |
