Aww Mike I'm so sorry about what's happened! I feel so bad for Eddie!! His sneezing is just awful to watch. I'm sorry you have to deal with this. I'm glad you're looking for second opinions! I don't know anything about foxtails but, they seem awful. You and Eddie are in my prayers!! I hope he gets better soon! Please keep us posted.

Aww, Mike, I just saw this. Your video has me in tears. Poor Eddie.

You're both in my prayers. Hoping for good news soon.

You're such a good daddy!

Patti · 09-20-2008, 05:43 AM

I will keep praying Eddie gets better real soon. The video was so emotional. You are a very special person and Eddie a special furbaby.

Hi Mike, sorry I am just seeing this about poor Eddie!!! I had no idea that foxtails even existed.......I was totally clueless but so glad you posted some information on it. They are "horad" things as you said in the video. I am wishing Eddie a complete recovery and hope he is feeling better soon!!! I posted the link to your information and the video on MT..........I think more people should be aware of this horrible plant that can cause so much trouble for our babies.

GET WELL EDDIE!!!! HANG IN THERE MIKE!!!!

RMKC · 09-20-2008, 07:18 AM

Great Video Mike, ooh how sad and those are pretty hard sneezes,poor little guy , i hope he sneezes it out if there is something up there...

Connie · 09-20-2008, 07:21 AM

I just saw the video...a tear jerker. I don't understand how the vets can't be more concerned when he is having sneezing fits like that. Of course I will keep Eddie in my thoughts...I have ever since reading your first post...and I'm praying. Hugs to you!

Hope Eddie feels better soon.

Mike,

If it is the foxtail that is making Eddie sneeze, I don't understand how antibiotics would help. Maybe the vet prescribed antibiotics in case the sneezing is caused by something else????

I watched the video, and except for the sneezing, Eddie looks GREAT. In fact, it doesn't look like you are holding back on the kibble, if you know what I mean. Maybe he's just getting a little fluffy

Your summers sure are short. Leaves falling from the trees already.

Inara · 09-20-2008, 08:12 AM

I was so teary watching your video, and fell in love with your babies.
My prayers for a healthy recovery. Please keep in touch.

My little girl had long bangs, and after a day of playing with her brother, she seemed restless and did not want to play. Her bangs covered her eyes and we didn't notice at first. She had her eye almost closed with infection.

We thought her brother had scratched her eye and after cleaning her up best we could took her to emergency vet.

Yep, Foxtail was in her eye and we could not see it with naked eye.

Now we keep her bangs shorter. We have twelve yorkies in our family.
My kids have been forced to take our litters because we bond too quickly and can't sell them. Sundays are fun at our house because they all love the pool. My three are grandma Zoya 10, her daughter Kaley 4 and Kaleys daughter Inara age 15 months.
