MY NEW BABY HAS PUPPY STRANGLES ONLY 8 WKS OLD. I NOTICED SOME RED SORE LIKE THINGS AROUND HIS MOUTH AND ON HIS CHEST, ALSO ON HIS EYE. JUST HIT ALL OF A SUDDEN SO I BROUGHT HIM IN AND THEY DID ALL THESE TESTS,SKIN SCRAPPING, BLOOD THE WHOLE MINE YARDS. HIS LIMPHNOIDS ARE VERY SWOLLEN BUT THEY THINK THEY CAUGHT IT EARLY SO HE WASNT TREATED WITH STEROIDS, HES ON CLAVAMOX. ALTHOUGH IVE BEEN READIN UP ON IT, AND EVERYONE STATES STERIODS ARE THE ONLY WAY TO SURE IT, HOPE SHE MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR MEDS. WEIRD THING IS HE ACTS PERFECTLY NORMAL, PLAYFUL, EATING,DRINKING, SO YOU WOULDNT EVEN TELL HE WAS SICK. I WAS SO FREEKED BECAUSE THIS DISEASE IS DEADLY AND PRAY HE GETS BETTER, I HAVE TO CHECK HIS LIMP;EVERY DAY 2CE A DAY TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE NOT GETTING ANY BIGGER, GUESS THATS WHY ITS CALLED STRANGLES BECASUE IF THEY GET TOO BIG THEY CUT OFF HIS AIRWAY. SCARY!!HAS ANYONE ELSE EVER HEARD OF THIS OR HAVE HAPPEN TO YOUR BELOVED PET?? KEEP YA POSTED! SKYE
Oh, how scary! We'll pray for your puppy at lunchtime today. Hope he continues to get better. (((hugs!!!))) love, mom
