Maybe some of you remember the "Vets Make Mistakes Too" thread that I posted....Tiah was pregnant and was scratching at her ears...vet gave me OTOMAX...I read the leaflet and found that it would have been detremental to give it to her and could deform/kill the puppies. So, I have been treating them with prox/alcohol. Anyway, my question is might whatever is going on with Tiah have given the little puppies a cold? I have all 4 of them on antibiotics. They sneeze and even cough. I asked the vet how this could happen because I have been SOOOOO CAREFUL, and she said "It just happens". It started with one puppy, but now it is all of them due to the fact that they all use the same utensels at the buffet (LOL). Has anyone ever had little puppies with a cold? They are not terrible, but it makes me worry about them constantly. Please advise......

As you can see by the pictures, it hasn't affected their appetites....all 4 are like little baby hippos!
