Mork · 11-17-2013, 05:26 AM

Hi,

I have a 9 week old 2.5 lbs Yorkie, named Mork, that became part of the family on Monday. On Tuesday, she started coughing and we took her to the vet on Wednesday. The vet told us she had caught kennel cough that she had probably caught in transit to the woman from whom we bought her. However, he said she would be fine and sent her home with antibiotics. On Thursday, Mork could barely breathe. She wasn't eating, drinking, and she was barely moving. So we brought her back for treatment and she is being cared for but we are wondering if any one would know, what are her chances? Is this common for Yorkie puppies?

Thanks,
Mork's Mom
