Update again ** Woke up with a fever again this morning 103.7... Unreal AAARRRrrggggg!!!
Repeated my actions of yesterday and it was back down to 100.7 by around 10am or so, jumping, running, ate as expected, bowl movement everything back to normal.
First thing in the morning he litterly would not even get out of his crate, layed around tired, droopy, sad, twitch while he slept, and heavily congested with flem etc.
Does Flem / plugged cause a fever hike? I suspect through the night he gets plugged up, maybe the infection is in there and it clears as the morning progresses. I just HATE the fact that his temp was back up to 103.7 again.
Tomorrow I will be back at the vet and tell them to do a blood test, urine test or whatever we have to so we can clear the infection, Its so sad to wake up plan the day and then change of plans while we try to figure out why our puppy is going through this again for the 3rd time.
I'm anticipating he will be fevered again tomorrow, i'm going to relocate his crate or leave a heater on downstairs to help keep it warmer for him as he sleeps but if he is fevered again tommorow we will be at the vet as the doors open so I hope they can fit us in.
How are your dogs for the congested sound, the vet said he was a little more pronounced, of course it is normal to us and when he clears his throat there are times you can't even here him. Just wondering if as he is sleeping that is infected, plugs up, and makes the fever rise.
Sorry for the jumbled reply, at wits end thought we had this fever thing licked but we clearly need some antibiotics and need to determine the cause at this point.
Thx again all!

P.S. Forgot to mention his appetite was good, drank, pee'd first thing in the morning after all night in the crate (9 hrs approx), ate breakfast, bowl movement, other than the fever pulling him down he would be perfect. As the fever lowers he gets the remainder parts back like, nipping when he's bored, bugging our yorkie, playing, running etc.
