Sick collie/lab cross

[finallyamommy]

Hi there

Just wanted to know if anyone out there knows of anything that I can give my Collie/lab cross. As she is having a hard time breathing. The vet just found that she has a shadowy image on the xrays. Also he couldn't see the heart, or any of the upper organs. But all organs came back ok during the blood work. Right now the vet doesn't know if it is Cancer or just a really bad infections or phemona.
The vet gave her two differnet med to use every 8 hours. Jazz is having a really hard time breathing. I would like to know if there is anything that can be given to her to help her to breath better. As like something like Asthma. My sister has a machine that was used for my niece. Would this be helpful to her. It just about time for me to get off of work and I really want to get home. To be with her.
Is there anything that I can give her like vitimins. I got to be able to help her more then what Im doing. The thing that is killing me is that she doesn't even look sick. Just it is her breathing. She still wants to play, get hyper when I come into the room,. It her breathing and that she won't lay down. As I guess that her chest is hurting her when she lying down. Should I be putting her in a cage to rest or would that be wrong thing. As if it is cancer, Then these would be the last couple of week left. OMG I hope not!!!!!! I really am scared. I hope that the meds help and if just a really BAD infection.

Only your vet can give you answers to the questions you're looking for. Never give your pet any human medications or vitamins without consulting with your vet.
Fingers crossed your dog comes through this okay. Please keep us posted.

Do you mean a dehumidifier or a humidifier - call the vet & ask if they think this might help since they heard the way Jazz is breathing, they will have a better idea.

for Jazz

Thanks, She is a really great dog. she loves ppl and kids..She has her moments with other animals. But most of the time she is really great. She love to go to the dog park and run around.

I think she is doing better. I don't know if it is just happy thoughts. As her breathing is looking better. She isn't panting as mmuch. Please god help her.......She has been only on the meds for 21 hours.
