Ti-Gris has to work hard in order to breath.
At times she wheezes but I haven't heard it lately.
She was on baytril, then baytril + doxy, then baytril + clavamox.
Added pred last night in case it would help .... it didn't.
The meds haven't helped her breathing but she has had more energy and I think the wheezing may have been reduced.

Taking her back to the vet today.
Maybe try baytril + zithro, maybe get an xray ....

Suggestions?
I was told that she will be one year old in October.
 
I've noticed with myco or pneumonia, pred can take up to 4 days before you see an improvement. I've had a lot of success with Baytril and Zithro combo. Poor sweetie is so young too.
 
Thanks mamarat, I'll keep trying the pred.

Ti-Gris had an xray today. Her heart etc look good but she has fluid in her lungs so starting lasix and contiuning the baytril + clavamox for a bit longer.
Will try baytril + zithro next if it doesn"t work.
 
I put all my girls life being from the nebulizer. I had a horrible time with two girls and pneumonia for weeks.

I hope she feels better I know how hard it is to watch them go through that.
