Sophie Kates Dentals -Question All- I need some advice, Sophie Kate had her dentals today(all went well, good results) but I am really kind of freaking out tonight - She cannot bark. When she barks it sounds like a cough. It reminds me of the dogs I have seen at the rescue where I volunteer, the ones who have been debarked. I am so upset, I have Googled until my fingers are ready to fall off trying to find out if this is "normal" after dentals. Could this be short term from the intubation? I know to expect the coughing but to not be able to bark? Please tell me this is normal, should I be freaking out like I am? Should I take her to the emergency Vet. This is what I get for letting her Dad pick her up, not enough questions. |
It's hard to say without being there what you should do, but I can tell you that when Max had anesthesia last time, he didn't sound like himself for a few days. I was paranoid about collapsed trachea, but he finally got his voice back. Glad to hear all went well today. Wishing Sophie Kate well. |
I agree it is hard to say, this might help some until you can call your veterinarian in the morning. Let us know what they say:aimeeyork Reasons Why Your Dog Can't Bark | eHow.com |
It is normal and will pass. It does not always happen, but sometimes they are just irritated from the tube...it's not a big deal. |
I just sent Lisa a text (sugarmamma). Hoping she will know something about this since she had answered on your previous post. |

Update, Sophie Kate appears to be feeling a little better today. We went outside this morning for a short walk and she did her "business", came back in and she drank some water and ate a little soft food. She is now sleeping on the chair with her favorite blanket. She is still a little horse and, but I am hoping that improves today. I am just happy she ate, drank and went to the bathroom- I will take the little milestones. Thank you ladies for all your support, as I have said in the past I could not have Sophie Kate and have her stay healthy and happy without all the help of the YTers. |
