Question
my dog is sick, he has pnemona, and now we like coughing more and he actually htru up today, were taking him to the doctors, well my mom is, but do u think its something more sure now cause he thru up? is he it maybe good and hes justthrowing up the mucus.

Answer
Dear Mandi,

With the symptoms you are describing I would insist that my dog be kept in the hospital with intravenous antibiotics and fluids.  Pneumonia is a very serious and life threatening condition and not to be toyed with.

If your vet won't do this for you then find another vet who will.  Your dog's life depends on aggressive treatment with antibiotics in a calm and supportive environment.

I wish you the best of luck.
