Ranger Update!! ☺️

[MFrey2012]

YAY RANGER!! So glad to you are home with Mommy!!

I'm Still a newbie, but when Ellie had Kennel Cough, and Fluid in her lungs another time, we did LOTS of Vaporizing, I work all day, and put the machine right toward her crate all day, and Coupage to her sides to help her cough up the yuck, and don't let him lay on side when he sleeps, there is very good reason, but my brain is fried right now, so cannot remember it...

But I think we all got you covered, YOU GOT THIS Ranger and Ashley!!

Hey guys, so happy for you! Ashley, add some chest massage to his therapy - it will help with blood circulation and drainage of phlegm, just rub his chest sides and give him light strokes with your fingertips, causing light vibrations in his chest, would be also good if he doesn't mind, move his front paws up and down when he lies on his back or side, like you know they used to give CPR in older times? It will passively stretch his lungs and improve circulation in his lungs, he needs massage as he doesn't move a lot and when there is no movement, there is less blood flow and stagnation of phlegm in his lungs. The same is recommended for people recovering from pneumonia.
Ranger, get well soon!

[MENTION=15780]Lalaloopsie[/MENTION] thank you for all of your advice. I am aware of the technique of chest percussion and have been doing that frequently during the day. I had not thought to move his front paws up-and-down when he lies on his back or side, that is definitely something I will try. We have been massaging his back just to try to keep the blood flow going. Thank you for your great advice!! Big hugs from Ranger and I ❤️
