She has arthritic legs and couldn’t lift her legs to cut her toenails or groom the bottom of her feet. Had to get her to recline. The labored breathing has been bothering me, but it has let up with the cooler weather. It alarmed the groomer. She had the same fears as me, that Missy might be dying. I asked my husband what the vet had said about the breathing problems and he said “what breathing problems”. I told him everything to say to the vet to give a good report on her and he never even listened. Taking her in myself in another week. I want some answers. How much longer do we have and what other problems might the breathing indicate. I KNOW my husband has seen her breathing like that, he is CLUELESS. Good thing he only drives an ambulance. I even asked him when he got home and told me about the mass in her stomach if that is related to the breathing problems and it went over his head. RME
Is she in congestive heart failure? On any diuretics?
