|
|
Duncan and Dowser are both showing signs of a cold. Last week Duncan started with gunky eyes and being grumpy. Now both are grumpy, lazy and Dowser has watery eyes.
I called the Vet and they are to be seen @ 2 tomorrow. So far Pepsi seems to have escaped it but as they all share water and food bowls I wonder if she will avoid it. Her being elderly makes me concerned about getting any illnesses.
I didn't know dogs got colds. I have never seen it before. |

Dogs can get cold like viruses, and they are usually contagious so that is good you are getting them checked out and I would keep Pepsi seperated so she doenst get it. Jakes eyes have been weepy too which means for him some underlying thing going on.
Jake did the get green eye ick once when we had a freinds dog stay with us that had it. |

I keep allmine separtated from sharing food or water bowls. Just as a preventitive maintenance. But i also vaccinate and supliment as well. That seems to help alot.
Its a good thing their seeing the vet. I'm sure they'll get fixed up right away. but sorry to hear their not feeling good!!! |
