Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum and I am LIVID!
I just purchased Kobe last month (he's 3 months), and a couple of days later I noticed he had a dry hacking cough. When I took him back to the vet in SoCal, I was told he had a mild case of bronchitis and in a couple days he would be okay ( I was given meds...Clyminax??? ) Once I brought Kobe to NorCal (I attend school here), he still was coughing. Finally I took him to a vet who really pissed me off!! First of all she's over-priced...it seemed she cared more about selling me products then caring for my puppy! Then she's scares the crap out of me, tells me that my dog MUST have a $200.00 x-ray to check for other stuff while he proceeds to sell me more items my dog "needs". Then the x-ray comes back...nothing wrong with him...so she says the say thing I ALREADY told her...kennel cough. She gave me two meds...one is called Torbutrol, the other Zithromax. The first day I brought him home he started having loose stools and I still didnt think that much of it. Well...it's been almost a week and he's still coughing!! I'm terrified!!! And to make things worse, today when I came home from school he was (and is still) acting strange. Usually when I come home (since he stays in a "play-pen") he goes crazy, whines, jumps, and wants to get out. Well he didnt do that, and when I let him out he just lay down. Usually he runs from room to room getting into everything. Can someone please help!!!??? I love my baby soooo much and I really am scared!!!
