So my pup is sick again he's having trouble breathing and hacking up white crap. It kinda started yesterday but I woke up this morning to him pretty bad off...and this isn't the first time, he had a rough patch of this back in the summer but an antibiotic shot cleared it up.

From what I understand, it sounds like kennel cough but idk, I've got an appointment at 10 so until then I'm here just twiddling my thumbs . My buddy has always been kinda sickly (had pneumonia when he was a few weeks old and probably KC) but when this rolls around, I get really worried

This is my buddy Virgil, sweetest damn dog I've ever been around and pray that he gets better

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. He may be the dreaded BoP but I'm serious when I say he's the sweetest dog. He seems to be doing better for the moment

If you have any Robitussin-DM gels, most vets will allow them. I used them on my lab when he got kennel cough, it's just a suppressant to keep inflammation down from non-productive coughs.

You might want to just call the vet, I'm not sure if you can give them the kind that loosens mucus.

Huh, interesting. He's had some other stuff going on so I'm still running over there but I'll be sure to ask. Thanks.

And thanks everyone for the kind words

Well wait, I should've rephrased. My appointment is at 10. Really crappy wording on my part. Idk why I put "opens"

Thanks man. But yeah, there's some perks to going to the same vet as I adopted him from. It's across town but if I ever need anything, they get me a time ASAP
