oh ok, that's good to know and it sure is kinda cute. I just wanted to make sure it's normal, :-).

How's her coughing this afternoon?

Ok, so I feel calmer now and know the people weren't lying. I asked for the copy of the registration that I've known they've had so I know for sure she is AKC registered. The original should be coming soon....
I also got a copy of the shot records but as I've mentioned, depending on what the vet thinks I might start over with the shots. Not sure if I've mentioned but she was also microchipped. The medicine she's been inhaling is called "Dimso". Anybody heard of that?
So, as a conclusion I feel a little better now knowing that these things did exist and they were not lying about it but they were rather slow in obtaining it and tried to cover that with a few white lies.

:-)

No coughing since this morning. I think the breathing treatments has helped her. I went and got all the paperwork and X-ray from the vet she was going to so I feel relieved swithcing to a more experienced one on Monday.

Is Gizmo as crazy as Baby is? Wanting to bite and play around and stomp around like she's a horse? LOL

He jumps like a rabbit and then runs around the room over and over. I've heard people on here call it the "zoomies". And he gets really fierce with his toys and shakes them like he's this big, mean hunter. It's pretty funny to watch!

Have you figured out how to look at the photo gallery yet? Also, did you find the thread in pictures where I posted Baby's photos? I also posted some new photos of Gizmo in the pictures section today.

I'm glad you have his records now. Take all of that to the vet with you tomorrow and he/she can help you decide what to do about the shots, etc...

I have no idea what that medicine is, maybe someone else does?

I have no idea what that medication is...But I'm happy to hear Baby is progressing...and simply being a puppy...Best to you and hope Baby recovers completely!!!

Ok, so I just got back from the vet and I'm not too happy. Her coughing continued pretty strongly yesterday morning and this morning. It's always between 5-7AM, isn't that strange...

Anyway, so I drove all the way to the other side of town thinking this vet would be more helpful. I felt that he pretty much didn't say much more and all he was talking about was me spending more money doing the same damn tests the other vet allready did. I even brough the X-ray with me for him to see but he didn't think that X-ray was good enough and wanted to do his own for another $100. Grrr. And he said that I should get a "Nubilizer", carrying crate and then the medicine from him, if I don't want to take her in everyday for 2-3 weeks for breathing treatments. That's another coupel hundred dollars.
So he gave me some tablets to give her for two weeks before I have to go back for a recheck and another set of X-ray to check for improvments. He said he's not even sure if it is pneumonia based on the X-rays I had.

Pretty much, this visit felt useless and got me more upset than I was before. I really didn't feel like he cared at all. It is his clinic and the way he sounded I just saw $ signs in his eyes.

The people I got her from said they want me to take her back to them if it's going to mean more vet bills. I know a lot of people have suggested suing them in court but I just don't want to go that route and frankly I just don't have the energy to "fight". She is still hyper and eats well which is offocarse great. I am going to give her this new medicine, it's called "Orbax" and see how that goes. Hopefully she will continue being the crazy little Baby girl she has been.

This is such a frustrating situation. I guess it is at least preparing me for motherhood huh?!

Sorry I've been slow with responding. Been busy doing I don't know what. I took her to the vet though this morning and I don't feel much viser then before. I'm starting to loose faith in vets. :-(

I am sorry things are so frustrating for you right now. My heart goes out to you and Baby. Hopefully, someone else here knows more about puppies with pneumonia or coughing issues. It sounds like you are doing all of the right things.

:confuse2:

Hugs from me and Gizmo.

Hey, I'm so sorry about your yorkie.
I know that your yorkie pretty much is going through the same thing that Zoie went through and is still going through, I talked to some people here in town and one woman told me that she has heard of another yorki ehaving the same exact thing as Zoie, and she was actually misdiagnosed.. Apparently it was actually valley fever. But by the time they realized it, the little yorkie had to have a $4,500 surgery.

So maybe you should see if what your little one is valley fever? The girl said that they can be mixed up very easily.

-good luck

I contacted a couple members in Vegas to see if they could help you, I hope thay can hun I hope Baby gets well soon.
I have a nebulizer it is old but was only used for a week.

I skipped some of the thread, but what jumps out at me is the "breathing treatments" these people are giving a puppy could very well be their own nebulizer machine with their own medication for asthma or emphysema. Sounds very fishy; sorry if I missed something in the middle threads, but I hope puppy is not going back for any more breathing treatments.

The breathing treatment they gave her has actually made her coughing better. That man is supposely having heart surgery right now though so she can't even go for more sessions for a couple of weeks and I don't want to take her to THEM for it. It feels safer doing it myself at home and more convenient. I am giving her these pills the vet gave me yesterday named Orbax and I'm trying to find a nebulizer at this point and then the vet will prescribe me the med for it. I looked at how they were giving it to her and the set up was exactly what the vet instructed me to do. The medicine....well I'm not too sure if I trust that too much which is another reason I'd rather do it myself. They got the medicine from the breeder in Arkansa. Actually they were using their grandsons' old asthma machine. Is that bad?

How is Mr Gizmo doing?

U know what's sooo weird to me. How Baby follows my husbands EVERY SINGLE STEP. I mean when he goes to the restroom she finally makes some noise if the door is closed on her and she can't come it. LOL. She looooves the bathroom this crazy girl. It is so funny.

Hi! Gizmo is great! Thanks for asking. :) He does not like doors that are shut. He gets upset when he can't follow you places, so he tends to go into the bathroom with me as well. He loves the walkin shower. Too funny.

And...yea, I would not use old asthma meds that were prescribed for a person. I would get a new script for Baby.

How is she doing today? (Oh! Love the new avatar!)
