I asked Dr. Fant about it, she said not to worry that his throat would not swell shut… it has actually gone down a lot since he got the steroid shot today. I'm lucky that I stay at home, he's spoiled rotten!!! LOL

That is so great to hear. So glad he is doing better so fast. Yes he is one lucky puppy.

Sorry to hear this, and I have never heard of it. I hope the meds work and he gets better without it coming back.

I'm so glad Walter is on the mend, and hope the medications work quickly, and the infection clears up soon. I have never heard of this either. Sending love, hugs and prayers to you, I think you need them more than Walter. Take a deep breath, he's going to be okay. Feel better Walter, and stop scaring Mommy.

Well, I had never heard of a dog having strangles(or I should say, never heard it called that in dogs...). I once purchased a horse, who turned out to have strangles, which can be very contagious in horses, as in the beginning they blow snot. This horse had it in her nodes. She had had it for awhile, so it took me a long time to cure, having to give two shots a day for a month.
It is really good that you took the baBY IN right away-so it will not get so bad! Sending prayers for you and Wally.

I was going to ask you about the horse part… LOL I googled it unfortunately, and some of the side effects were pretty scary. Dr. Fant thinks I caught this super early so I really hope so… :begging: Thanks for your advice and prayers Lynn, always appreciated!!!
