What a sweetheart! I have a 10 year old Aussie mixed with ???? and he's been a great family dog for 9 years now. He was a rescue with less than 24 hours of life left when we adopted him and other than not liking little kids a whole lot, he's been absolutely wonderful!!!!! Be sure that your little guy meets people of all ages and diversities when he's little so you don't have the same problem that I do...

Well this is kinda crappy but it comes with the territory I suppose......
My littlest Pom "Star" had started developing a cough and last night it was pretty bad with her breathing. It was a raspy sound and she had a deep chest type of cough. When it first started I thought it was the pollen count (it is through the roof here) but I told my wife I was running her to our vet to get her some relief.
Come to find out Baby had given her a respiratory infection and she had to get antibiotic and steroid shots and since it was almost that time of the year I went ahead and got her boosters while I was there. She is doing a lot better but I still have to give her liquid antibiotics until they run out.
Now for the kicker......Dixie (my Irish Setter mix) started coughing tonite. :roll: I hope she doesnt get any worse or have problems breathing until Monday morning so I can run her to the vet. I am having her be as calm as she can be, just letting her rest next to me and loving on her a lot. It would be nice if the vet was in tomorrow to nip it in the bud. That is why I am taking my other Pom with me when I go. ;-)
