She is breathing with her mouth open?
Are you able to tell if her gums are pink and wet?
And is she is breathing more than 30 times a minute?
Hello? Could you see my reply?
I appreciate it has not been very long since your last reply, but given the severity of the symptoms, I am going to type my advise now.
Please respond when you can and we can continue the conversation.
If she is breathing more than 30 times a minute and/or her gums are pale, this is a true emergency and she needs to see a vet immediately.
This means taking her to your nearest out of hours clinic now.
The vet will provide oxygen and medicine to improve her breathing and, once stable, will run tests to determine what is going on.
Her treatment will depend on what is found and may include e.g. chest drainage, antibiotics, a blood transfusion etc.
Please let me know if you need the details for your nearest open vet.
I hope that this has been helpful and please let me know if there is anything else.
Take care,
Linda.
