| My little Freddie is sick I am wondering if someone can give me some advice. Freddie has come down with a cold and his little nose is congested. He doesn't seem to have a fever. But I am afraid he is going to get worse. Does anyone know of anything I can give him to help him get over this. Mary |

| How old is he? Does he seem fine in every other way? Is he going potty just fine? Does his chest sound raspy? Are his gums a healthy pink color or too whiteish? If he doesn't have any other symptoms except a little bit of a runny nose, you probably don't have a problem. You could call your vet and run it by him just to see what he says. Hope the little bugger is just fine and healthy . |

| He is 1yr and 3mos. His stool is fine and he drinks and eats good. He is still very active and he breaths ok. He just seems like he can't get over the conjestion. I was wondering is there any kind of medicine I could give him. I thought about Benedryl but I don't know Mary |

| Oh I hope your baby gets better soon. I have never heard of a dog having a cold so can't really give advise. . . keep us posted! |

| When Gypsy was congested when she had kennel cough, the vet suggested a vaproizer. It seemed to work.
