Thanks for sharing. Prayers were there for us and the specialist found he did not have a collapse trachea after all. He is overweight which we have been working on and it was causing the slidor which is located between the esphogus and his trachea. He said it would not be a big thing but his little noises and sounds would likely be less or even go away when the weight is brought down about 2.5# which is a lot for a 9# Yorkie now. We have a challenge ahead but feel we have been blessed and hopefully he can have a full life with some quality.
