You can use the search option, there are many threads about collapsed tracheas , Your vet should have did a examine on him :confused:
I hope your baby get the proper care he needs.

What was he talking about , the treacha or the cough??? Im really totally confused??? :rolleyes:

Here is a link to three videos, one showing kennel cough, one showing reverse sneeze, and one showing collapsed trachea.

When Cali had Kennel cough she had those symptoms and had to be treated by the vet as it can lead to pneumonia. Collapsed trachea is more common in small breeds but usually effects dogs over 5 years of age. I hope he doesn't have health issues like the first Munchie and have to go back

You would think the vet would have found this when he did the initial puppy check. I know many people told you not to use a collar on you puppy, to use a harness instead, collars can cause collapsed trachea, and that's why people were warning you to not use a collar, even for a little bit. Remember there is a difference between the words "normal" and "common", collapse trachea is common in small breeds, but it isn't normal. At one point in your other thread, you implied the vet was the breeder, is this true?

wantayorkie23 - Please post all the information. This is a very large forum and there are some very knowledgable people that truly do want to help but sometimes posts can appear like someone is trying to mess with the group.

Just post clearly - do alot of reading in the forum as 90% of your answers can probably be answered with some reading and then post for pleasure and those "difficult" questions.

Members have posted some great resources.

this was the puppy check and yes i have nevered used a colar with him in the week i have had him. And no yje vet is not the breeder. Im not sure where you got this from

Ok this is what happened. I told him about he cough and he told me that most small breeds get collaped trachea and it was common in them. He made it seem as though I had nothing to worrie about. But he didnt even hear the cough. Thats what I don't like about it. Looking at the videos that was posted above it does look more than kennel cough.
im just going to take him to another vet

Thanks for answering my question, some of the things your vet has suggested make me suspicious, and at some point it was hard to understand if the vet and the breeder were the same person, which would really make me suspicious. So as long as I understand the vet has no vested interest in telling you your dog is ok, when he is not, I'm more likely to trust what he is saying, although his competence is still in question. I think maybe going to another vet is a great idea, and if he too says that the dog has collapsed trachea, ask him how the dog got it, and how to treat it. Tell him about the other dog, and your concerns that this Munchie could have the same thing, and you would like him tested. Don't use anything around Muchie's neck, even for looks only. I asked you how old you are because if you are really young, it helps us know how much life experience you've had, and if you know how to be assertive with professionals. Sometime young people are intimated by professionals, and don't want to ask them enough questions, if they don't understand something, because they are afraid of taking up their time, but this is what you are paying for, and don't leave until your questions have been answered to your satisfaction and you understand. Best of luck.
