Donating YT 1000 Club Member | Audrey-Belle cured herself (I hope) I gave Audrey-Belle her second pill today about 4:30pm I still wasn't seeing alot of improvement. Hubby came home we went to dinner and the store, got home about 7:30pm. Audrey ran downstairs so I asked her if she needed to go out and let her into the back yard. She started running to the back fence and stopped to sneeze and cough. She did that a few times then started sneezing super hard one right after another. All her teeth were showing, eyes closed, snot and drool flying non stop. I started to think she was having a seizure, I ask her if she needed my help and she took two steps tword me and that was it. I picked her up to see if her eyes were rolled back but her constant super sneezes made that impossible as her head and body were thrashing. I did notice something in her nose and took a closer look. She had a piece of grass sticking out of both sides of her nose. It was long enough to grab if you could hold onto her and catch her head. I couldn't so I ran her into the house upstairs to hubby who was on the computer. I held her as tight as I dared and he pulled about a 3 inch long piece of grass out of one side of her nose and a piece about 2 inches long out of the other. Once removed the sneezing and thrashing instantly stopped. She just laid her head on my shoulder and got real quiet. She's not sneezed or coughed once since then, she still sounds a bit congested though. I have seen her eat grass before and when I first noticed her acting funny yesterday morning she was sitting by the long grass in the back yard. Hubby has an unfinished project there, I told him he needs to weed whack it tomorrow. I looked at the clock and it was 7:40 if we'd been 10 min later coming home we may have found her dead. I don't know how long she could have kept that up without help. We both got faces full of doggie snot and drool but she alive!

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | Still doing well this morning, no more coughing and sneezing. Hubby says she's back up to her normal bark limit so she must be ok. I cancelled the Dr appt and will keep her on the antibiotics just incase since she still sounds a bit congested. Probably the extra mucus her body produced to get the blades of grass out.

| Oh my, those were long pieces of grass. So happy she was able to sneeze them out where you could get them. Wow! Glad she is so much better.

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | Thank you, she is doing just fine. It's like nothing happened, in fact today we took her to an antique show/flea market and she did great. LOVED the attention she got and when I turned my back I looked again and she was trying to eat long grass by a tree. I guess she didn't learn anything from the experience. Hubby weed whacked everything he can't get with the mower in front and back today so I shouldn't have to worry again for a week or so.
