My Jolene is sick... I replied to a post on Sunday about Jolene having hacking cough. Well, it got much worse and today I took her to the vet. She has been diagnosed with a fever, kennel cough, early pneumonia and a possible collapsing trachea!!:eek: So, she is on cough meds, antibiotics, antihistamines and we have to keep a close watch on her for complications. They were going to give her some subcutaneous fluid, but I told them she has been eating and drinking fine, and they said she didn't appear dehydrated. I have no idea where she could have gotten it from, as she hasn't even been out of the house, not even to potty, in over a week. She uses puppy pads and we tilled up out yard so I haven't wanted her to get out in the mud. They said that with the trachea issue, we would watch her after she clears from this problem and see if she continues to have the barking cough when excited. If so, the more meds and evaluations. Keep your fingers crossed that she gets better soon. It is so sad watching her not feel good. |
Best wishes for a fast recovery..please keep us psoted... |
Keep us updated on her progress. I certainly hope she gets much better soon! :exclaim: |
I hope little Jolene feels better soon!! :getwellso |
Thanks for the well wishes...Right now, she is buried in a fleece blanket in my lap. She seems to be cold, so she will get a sweatshirt to wear tonight. And, no crate for her tonight, in the bed she will go!! I can tell she still has a bit of a fever, but at least she has a decent appetite. Thanks again. |
Get Well Jolene I hope Jolene gets over this quickly and has no other problems. I know how hard it is to see them sick. I just paused and said a special prayer for her. God Bless & Get Well Soon Jolene!!! |

I was just reading about the Canine Flu and the symptoms sounds similar. You may want to ask your vet tomorrow. Here is the link to the American Veterinary Medical Association about the Flu: http://www.avma.org/public_health/in...guidelines.asp I pray she gets better soon too. Keep her warm and give her hugs and kisses from Jazzie & me. |

Jen -- I am so very sorry that Jolene is feeling "under the weather". I hope she was comfortable and slept through the night in mama's arms. :) Sending hugs and get well quick wishes. :getwell: How is Jolene feeling this morning? Dan and Corinne - thanks for the heads up about the canine influenza. I am sure that there are a lot of folks here that will benefit from your post. I read the info and I will certainly "file" it in memory just in case I get a sick one. :) |
I'll be thinking about all of you. I hope Jolene gets better soon! |
Poor Baby...I hope she starts feeling better soon - you must be so worried. Sending Get Well wishes your way right now.... |
