Sick
I had a stray puppy show up at our house this weekend and he breathes really funny almost like he is having trouble breathing. What do you think could be wrong with him?

Dear Jason,
I am not sure what kind of pup showed up but some dogs have traits for common breathing problems like tracheal collapse. I think it is common in toy breeds but bulldogs and short nose dogs have breathing issues to. I would plan on taking the pup to the vet to make sure it is nothing serious. Kennel cough is another problem amongst dogs - sounds almost like dry, gagging cough. I am in no way an expert and it could be something as easy as a cold but I recommend just taking him to the vet to be sure.
Good luck and your a good person for taking the pup in :)

These are the types of things that Bullie rescues need to do more of. They need to show the tragic side of this breed.. and the positive traits of these dogs. I wish more rescues and BSL groups would get together, pool their resources and hire a gre…
