ok My friend just recently got a puppy weimaraner. The puppy is 8 weeks old. She has had it for about two weeks now. Well on friday night the puppy started to cough. It would cough until it gagged and nothing would come out. The chest was very clear and there was no drainage from the nose or eyes.
Well the next morning on Saturday she took the puppy to the vet. She said it wasnt her usual vet because the vets at the practice take turns on saturday. Well she waited there for an hour with the pup and they then took her back to a room. The vet came in looked at the pup and I guess because it wasnt coughing at the time said that there was nothing wrong with it and that the coughing would pass. He held the puppy up to his ear and said no the chest sounds fine!!
Well taking the vets advice they went home with the pup and it started to act a little more normal but still coughing. Yesterday the poor little puppy wouldnt eat or drink. She said that she was cooking everyhing in her house trying to get it to eat something and it wouldnt touch it. He simply laid on his bed and slept most of the day and only woke up to go to the bathroom.
Well this morning took him back to the vet and her regular vet was there. He took a look at the pup and said that there was nasal drainage he was weezing and they ended up admitting him for observation.
I was eondering what in the world could this be? It progressed so fast. We thought maybe kennel cough but she has two other dogs and neither are coughing. We also thought maybe allergies because the pine pollen is very bad right now but wouldn't he get releif from being inside? Let me know what yall thnk
