QUESTION:

Molly is having trouble breathing, I think she has a cold. She croups when she gets excited but she is doing it a lot more today. Her nose is cool, she is a little sluggish. She is eating ok. What do you do for a dog with a cold?

Question :

I noticed a red bump on my female Maltese (8 yrs. old) leg. The bump is on her right outside upper leg the size of a green pea. It is raised out, semi hard and somewhat prickly looking. It doesn’t seem to bother her. I found it when I was petting her.

Thank you,
Marsha Kenchel
