My old yorkie use to do this randomly but never consistently like Pippa is. I've noticed it's always in the morning and then just once in awhile during the day. Otherwise she seems really healthy and I don't think it's kennel cough because it's not happening throughout the day. My vet is unsure and wants me to bring her back in if it gets worse or doesn't go away. Any ideas??? |
Coughing like this is NOT normal. Go to your vet or get a second opinion. Try to catch it on video using your phone, if you have one.
There are puppy charts etc., but no two pups are the same. My Miss Mini was tiny and everyone said she would weigh no more than 4 or 5 pounds...shes a healthy 7. Mia was huge at 12 weeks and weighs 6 lbs at 8 months. Honestly I think shes done growing. Shes been 6 lbs. for about 3 months now so we will see.
Your puppy will get as big as shes meant to be!
