| Hacking puppy, she is making the weirdest sounds. HI everyone I need help, my Tinkerbell is making funny sounds, it sounds like she needs to throw up or like she has something stuck in her throat. I took her to the vet on saturday, he held her to check her and she cried, when we got home she started making the sounds I thought it would be one day or so but she keeps on doing it . What could be causing this?? She does it mainly after eating or dinking, she is acting the same other than this. This morning I saw her eating some of my hair, could this be causing it? I hope it goes away Sounds like she has something stuck in her throat . My poor baby!! Yesterday she did do it less but it still there? Could the vet have hurt her?? Can someone please help? I was thinking about taking her back to the vet but i am afraid he will hurt her again........I live in Korea and I am american so it is hard to communicate with the vet . Does anyone have advise?? Please help! |

| It sounds like kennel cough, but its very contagious so if your Maltese is doing fine it probably isn't that. It may be that she is just drinking and eating too fast. Alot of Yorkies have trachea problems and they cough after drinking. Some are very mild and others quite severe, but seem to get worse with age. My Yorkie had a very mild case and only when she got excited would she "cough" like to greet me after I had been out. She lived a long life and did not pass away due to this; however, my Mom did have to put her Maltese to sleep eventually at about 7 years because it became so severe. There is a surgery in some cases, but it is very, very expensive. It seems like the littler these dogs are the more troubles they have. I do remember yours being really small and you getting her really young. Mine had a lot of health issues (mainly low blood sugar) until she was about 4 months and then things turned around for her. |
