I got Augie about 1 1/2 yrs ago (he is 7) after he was rescued from living his entire life in a puppy mill. So I watch him like a hawk since I know he wasn't raised with care and love
I came home yesterday and he was panting a bit, breathing from his mouth, which has stopped today. Last night he got barely any sleep and he usually sleeps all night long without moving. He was up every hour from midnight on just pacing. I came home tonight and the panting is done, but his nose is warm and dry and he is breathing through his nose as if its stuffed up. He has always had an issue with his nose like that, but its always after he drinks water, as if water gets in his nose yet for 2 hrs since I got home he has been doing that every 5 min or so.
I started sleeping with the fan on Sunday night and this started Monday so I was thinking maybe he got sick from the fan blowing on him. What do you guys think? Should I give it a day or 2. I would hate to take him to the vet just to be told he has a cold or something.
advice? ideas?
