Thank you so much for all of the advice!
Tank had a rough night last night, coughing and hacking so I took him to another vet this morning. After X-Rays, hiehas fluid in his left lung so they are hospitalizing him for pneumonia. I am a wreck! We haven't even had him for 3 full days :( He is in good hands at the vet hospital, dr said they are treating it aggressively via nebulizer and IV. Please pray for Tank!!

Oh no! I'm so happy you went to get a 2nd opinion! I'm glad he's in good hands now, and I pray he makes a quick recovery. Poor baby. He will need lots of love & snuggles when he's back home.

Good Call Mom. I'm so glad you took him for a second opinion, and he's getting treated. I hope he gets better soon and back to himself and home where he belongs. Continuing to pray for Hank. Please keep us posted on how he's doing.

Not a lot to report on Tank :( I called the vet hospital before closing and all they were able to report was that he was "better than this morning." I am calling as soon as they open tomorrow because I need a one on one with the doctor. I'd like to know EXACTLY how he is being treated and I need an updated prognosis. I understand pneumonia takes time to heal and it's a day by day sickness, but I'm starting to feel more and more out of the loop and helpless :( PLEASE continue prayers for Tank, our family already feels so lost without him home.

We will definitely continue to pray for sweet Tank. Please keep us posted on him, also I would go directly to the vet & speak with them in person instead. Sometimes on phone calls you don't get full attention &. Can daze off because of your emotions (I've been there) - will check in with you in the morning.
