Thanks for the vets names. I will have to call them in the morning. Hopefully a second opinion will not hurt.

I am so sorry to hear that. I hope he feels better soon.

whispersmom2 · 11-28-2005, 07:51 PM

So sorry to hear about the time you are having with your baby. Yes, he was sick when you got him because KC has an incubation period of up to 2 weeks (I think).. It is rather common also for a puppy that has not been kept in the very best of conditions to get sick with a variety of things. Pneumonia is again a common complication of KC. Coupage is great! So is a humidifier! AND so is a powerful cough suppressant if used properly. My little Cara still has a cough and sounds soupy every morning. She cannot take Benadryl but she did respond well to the cough suppressant..
Does your contract have any guarantees in it about health? If it does, enforce it!!!! That breeder ought to have to live with the symptoms of pneumonia for a week or two..
You and your babies will be in our prayers...

The vet that I pm'ed you about is open on Saturday morning. Its first come first serve.

The breeder only guaranteed any congenial defects. Basically anything that cannot be cured by surgery. What a jerk, huh? Once again, I should have done more research. Thanks so much for the prayers. We definately need them right now. Haven't gotten much sleep since I got my baby, but it's well worth it to have him better!

Thanks so much. I am going to do some calling around tomorrow. I appreciate everyones help!

ReesesMom · 12-02-2005, 06:07 PM

Ok I just wanted to give everyone an update. Took Reeses back to the vet. Things are looking up. He still has the cough and all, but the vet says we went from upper respiratory, to pneumonia, and back to upper respiratory. Yeah for kicking pneumonia in the butt. So Reeses gained the weight back that he lost plus some....little piggy

so we are going to stay on the antibioticas until they run out and see where we are on the cough then....if he still has the cough, then they said for me to call back to get them refilled. So YAY! Atleast my little baby is getting somewhat better....still nervous about giving him bath though.....what do you guys think? Should I wait until the cough is totally gone?
