 Maximus....2nd Opinion better then the first
Hi all....Maximus and I went to another vet yesterday and by his X-Ray's he feels that he DOESN'T have a collapsed trachea...he thinks it may be kennel cough. He advised me to keep him on the medicine that the first doctor gave me (because it is an antibiotic and cough suppressant) and then come back in 10 days if the cough hasn't gotten better...he says these meds should take care of the kennel cough if that is indeed what it is. If not I have to go back and he said they will have to put a endoscope down his throat to see whats going on..but he is still very little to do that. I am hoping he is right and it is only kennel cough...he said by feeling his outside the trachea seems okay and the lymph nodes are swollen (symptom of kennel cough) so let's keep our fibgers crossed....Thanks all for the support and concern. |
