Hi all -
I noticed Baxter was snoring 10x louder than normal the last couple days. I chalked it up to him "growing up fast" as a puppy.
Tonight I came into the room and he was breathing really loud.
His nose is really wet and runny and every inhale i can hear "snot" in it ...
Something is obviously not right for him.
He's been on antibiotics for about 4 days now, which I absolutely hate, but he was sent to me with a staph infection on his skin, which was spreading.
I know antibiotics can really do a number on people, and im sure baby puppies too.
I have been giving him probiotics though, so I am pretty sure this isn't a lack of good "flora".
I would go the allergy route, but I've never heard of runny nose and watery eyes in dogs with allergies.
Plus, nothing has changed in his environment that would cause this.
Except the damn antibiotics.
Any input you can give?
Kevin
