Re: Tipper my Jack Russell is having breathing problems
Hi Patti,
Did you ever talk to Tipper's vet about the Adequan shots? I could tell they did help Josie a bit - but hers was a different case than Tippers and the shots just couldn't help with that mass in her chest. The honking sounds you mention do sound like the trachea is collapsing and the Adequan is supposed to help strengthen those rings so that doesn't happen. It is sure worth talking about.
Don't lose hope, honey. I think the emotions you expressed are ones we all feel any time we lose one of our babies here. Cry for Vicki, cry for yourself, and know you do not cry alone. Tears are raining throughout this morning for us all.
Hugs,
Leslie and the gang

I think Leslie said it all, Sweetie. Sending hugs and hopes that someone will listen to you about Tipper.

Leslie and Addy:
You two always seem to be there to pick me up when I fall down, or stumble. Thank God for both of you, as you both help me tremendously. Blessings

Re: Tipper my Jack Russell is having breathing problems
Everyone:
I can't post too long as Tipper is having a really bad day, panting an awful lot, the vet was not there when I took her in for her blood pressure. They told me they were going to tell the vet as soon as he came in that her pressure is dangerously high. She is panting, and uneasy ,and I have been really controlling her food and she gained weight. I think she may be retaining fluid. After yesterdays events I am just sick to my stomach. Pray for my girl that this passes and she is ok. Blessings
Patti

Right here holding your hand. Praying for you both.
Re: Tipper my Jack Russell is having breathing problems
Still with you, hoping that vet gets in soon so you don't have to wait
