dog - stubborn sinus infection

Question
My 10 yr. female rat terrier, Dutch has had a nagging sinus infection. It
started several months ago with hard reverse sneezing, post nasal drip, etc.
After waiting a bit for it to clear up on its own, I took her to the vet, who took
a swab and sent it in to be cultured, it is the Krebsellia bacteria, so she gave
me 2 weeks worth of "Primor" Antibiotics. Dutch seemed to get nearly over it,
but it came back after a couple of weeks, so the vet gave me 3 more weeks
worth of the same antibiotic. We are two weeks into that and it does not seem
to be helping. I have also been giving her several supplements to help out; oil
of oregano, olive leaf and probiotics.

Answer
Hi Barb and Dutch - I am glad to see you ordered some NuVET Plus!!!
Let me know how Dutch does on the NuVET and my other suggestions...
Thanks
