| Does anyone else's baby have a cough? I took Cocoa and Daisy both to the Vet Saturday with a cough and he said they both have an upper respiratory infection. Daisy had bronchitis a couple of weeks ago. Just wondering if this is normal and/or going around. |

| I don't think that's normal. Lacy and Rylie have been fine here.

| They have been sneezing too and the Dr. didn't seem too alarmed and put them on antibiotics and cough syrup. |

| my yorkie throws up here and there. I tend to not worry about it because they're so low to the ground, it seems like they find little things to eat that upset thier tummies. However, if you think its abnormal or he/she isn't eating or drinking water, then its time to worry & get to the vet ASAP ! |

| I know when I was on an antibiotic a few weeks ago for a sinus infection it would really make me sick esp. if I hadn't eaten a whole lot. I'm sure that is whats wrong with him. Thanks! |

I was scared to death for six months as they did occasionally vomit, Dennis passed out twice after vomiting. I consulted another Vet and it was his opinion that they both should have been on medication as they were passing it back and forth. So the bottom line is, make sure they are both on antibiotics. Also, just be very careful that it does not culminate in pneumonia. It is very scary and twice it almost killed Dennis because of the Vets failure to treat him. I am still upset with my Vet, and have been looking for another one I can trust. Good Luck! | |

| That's how little Natalie's started.... lil' tiny cough and a sneeze one day to a middle of the night run to the ER the next... which turned out to be pneumonia... very scary thing!! If you don't trust the recommendations of your current vet, I'd seek out another in your area asap and get those babies in!! Sending up lots of healing prayers!!
