This is why I wasn't too concerned when Pippa did it but then my vet said it wasn't normal and the fact that she was doing it each morning made me think twice. She never did it this morning so I'll see if she does tomorrow morning and then take her to the vet if she does. I have no problems having her treated with antibiotics I just didn't know if it was better to see if it heals on it's own(cause I read it can run it's course and be gone in a few weeks) rather then do possibly unnecessary antibiotics (didn't know if they can harm such small pups) but everyone seems to advise me to treat it ASAP so I will. Once again, I have to tell you guys...I'm loving this forum!
I'm so glad you like YT and am really glad you found us! BUT in my nicest kindest yet stern voice I am demanding that you get to a vet or emergency vet immediately...WHY? Because my poor Miss Mini got veryyyy sick from Kennel Cough and it was almost fatal. These little pups can go down hill quickly, really quickly.

You asked for advice and we are giving it, and I think others will agree with me, this pup needs treatment NOW not later.

Ok, so let us know how it goes when you get back from the vet...
