gosh i hope not, but sara has had a stuffy nose latley and has started sneezing an awful lot in the past few days... i am really worried about her... i wouldnt be surprised though, our weather keeps us with the air on one day and the heat on the next... it has made my hubby sick too.... but when she plays, she breaths heavy cuz her nose is stuffed up... i dont want her to get an URI... she had one when we brought her home and i really dont want her to go through that again... it was hard on her... she is still eating and drinking good though, so i guess i will just wait and watch...
is there anything i can do in the meantime to maybe prevent her from getting sicker?
Try Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE). You can get it at GNC, add a couple of drops to her water (it needs to be very diluted, as it is bitter!!). It will boost her immune system and help her fight off a cold if one is starting.
Do a search on here for GSE or Grapefruit Seed Extract, there's a lot of info about it. Hissy is the expert with it, though!
Get the liquid- 3 drops per day in canned food- 10 drops in the water bowl until you changeover the water- but don't cancel out a vet visit. URI are nasty and can quickly turn into the worse case scenario
