My puppy has difficulty in breathing

[danj]

Just like the title says, my puppy has difficulty in breathing. He breathes really deep right now and he also wants to puke or something but he doesn't. He is not like this a little lately. What seems to be the problem? What can I do? Please help.

you need to bring your puppy to the vet , there can be a number of reasons why he is having difficulty in breathing.

[danj]

there's no vet available this time. It's 1am here

How is your puppy acting , is his nose and eyes clear or does he discharge ? and how about his gums ,how do they look ?

How is your puppy acting , is his nose and eyes clear or does he discharge ? and how about his gums ,how do they look ? Puppy can get pneumonia and there are other health issues that can affect their breathing , so it's hard to say what wrong but you really need to have a vet check your puppy out. OOPS I did not mean post that two times.

There's some kind of fluid coming from his nose and he breathes heavily.
There's also some kind of "KAH" sound coming from his nose.
His eyes are good and still bright but he looks very sleepy.
His gums and tongue are still normal. (I think)

You really need to bring your puppy to the vet and you should it do tomorrow . Tell the vet your puppy is having difficulty breathing and has discharge coming fro his nose. Has your puppy been had any shots yet? How is your puppy , I hope you'll let us know what was wrong with him.

Any updates on your pup? Have you had him to the vet? If breathing is a problem it could be kennel cough or any number of other things. A pup may look healthy when bought or adopted but kennel cough takes about 10 days o show up. Don't take any chances.

I wish the OP would come back and let us know how her puppy is , I am being to thing the poor puppy dies. Sure hope I am wrong.

Me too. I wonder if the location given means the Phillippines and there just isn't good Vet care available, or nearby?

Hope the pup got well.

Where did you find a vet for your pet. Hope the puppy is doing fine. he must have grown too.

If a pet has difficulty breathing then there's something really wrong with him/her. An immediate rush to the vet can somehow explain to us the reason behind that. I would blink a second if I think something is wrong and will definitely bring my good pet to vet even if I need to drive long.

Take him to the vet immediately. Breathing difficulty might be a serious problem. It needs to be taken care of immediately. Your puppy’s vet should be able to tell you the reason causing the difficulty. Take care of him.

Did you take your dog to the vet? How is your dog now? Hope he is feeling better now.

I think that every loving puppy-owner should remember this advice. Especially with breathing problems you can't self-medicate!
