yorkie

Hi, i know this isn't about cats... but im a little worried and cant find info anywhere else. I have a 2 lb 7 wk old yorkshire terrier I just got 2 days ago. She will weigh up to 7 lbs at adult.. so shes not that small. Anyway.. she already had some of her shots.. and we took her to the vet the same day we got her for a checkup. They said she was in great health.. no problems, except a small hernia that was inherited and they said its so small it will probably just disappear. Well today I noticed her nose is running and she has been sneezing and breathing kindof hard. It was warm today so I let her play outside for a while. Is this just a cold? Is there anything I can do to help her.. or should I just let it run its course? Thanks

i think that if your worried you should go to the vets as she is only little and young animals dont have much in reserve. I do hope that it is not much and that she gets better soon.

I'm no puppy expert, but I, too, would definately recommend a trip to the Vet. Sure hope your little puppy is feeling better very soon!

I know an upper respiratory infection can be serious in a kitten, so I'll only assume the same would be true for a puppy. I think a trip to the vet, or at least a phone call, is in order.

Well she seems to be doing fine today. Playing with my other yorkie, eating and drinking.. even went to the bathroom outside for her first time. I don't hear her sneezing.. and don't see any liquid coming out of her nose. Maybe she just had a little water up her nose after drinking. But thanks for your advice anyway.

Aww what a sweet girl. I'm glad she's doing better today.
