Now Kimchi is sick! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Kimchi and Kitt · 06-29-2011, 02:13 AM

So the last few weeks I have had a very sick yorkie- MISO! He is doing considerably better. on his 9th day of antibiotics with 4 more days to go. The coughing has nearly stopped with maybe one cough in the middle of the night. He is getting 1ml of cough suppressant every night, antibiotics twice a day, and still ear ointment antibiotics twice a day and an ear wash. All the infection finally came to the surface of his ears and I was able to clean it all out! The vet says the look much better, and he still has 8 days left of those antibiotics. He is getting nebulizer treatments every other day. Its a hassle, about a 2 hour round trip on the subway and a walk but our pup is so worth it!!!

A 6 days ago we started Kimchi on antibiotics .2ml two times a day. well he developed a cough, and I called the vet, she said she had made a mistake and it should be .5 ml of antibiotics two times a day. ARGH!!! so frustrating, and one of the many reasons we prefer the off post vet. so day before yesterday we started him on the .5ml two times a day. He is on 2ml of cough suppressant a day. His cough is better, only a few coughs a night.

Well today Kimchi started vomiting everywhere, I have no idea what e got into! All over his bed, all over the floor probably 12 times. Near the end it was very mucousy. He is still drinking water, and a bit ago I got him to eat some applesauce with a few kibbles of dog food. I would take him to the vet, but we have a tropical typhoon passing through, and I dont even know if I can make Miso's neb appointment tomorrow, but Im going to try. The rain and lightening is out of control.

Thank you everyone for the well wishes, and the good thoughts. I love my babies, and slowly but surely they have both been making a recovery!

Ohhhh Nooooo.....

Sending Prayers that your babies won't be feeling bad, for long...
I know it is a terrible feeling when they aren't feeling well.

Thanks!

Today Kimchi is feeling better, no more throwing up and eating food regularly, and his usual playful self! Miso and I just got back from a Neb treatment and I don't think I have heard one cough from either of them since last night =)
