Thread: sick dog

Our gsp x had her first run in with ongaonga last night, she got carried away chasing a possum and put her head into a bunch of small nettle. Thought we had got away with it as she showing no ill effects and was happily running round for another hr before we got home. By the she was starting to do a little cough but nothing else. By this morning was coughing constantly, dribbling and constantly rubbing her muzzle. Walking very tenderly and a few tremors in a front leg. Still drinking and eating so just keeping an eye on things rather than rushing to the vet. Good lesson for all involved. Interestingly the Mini schnauzer she was running with was also in there and had no adverse effects, suspect one of the benifits of being a hairy little sod.
