Lotty has been making some weird breathing noises this week, initially thought she was suffering some sort of hayfever or reaction to the spring (this being her first). She was off her food and very lethargic. Turned out she has a sore throat.
Now that's a first for me, anyone else experienced this with their dogs?
She's now on anti-biotic plus she had an anti-inflammatory injection, has been up to her tricks tonight which is nice to see.

Yes, Amber did have a sore throat before now. Maybe some honey might also help? Hope Lotty's better soon.

AnnaAmber, thanks for the tip, use honey when I have a sore throat but didn't think of it for Lotty.
I am please to say Lotty has shown signs of recovery - this we know coz she has been getting up to her tricks again, had to chase her around the house to recover my watch (foolishly left it where she could reach it).

Cooper had a sore throat last ill after lots of coughing when he was unwell. I put honey on his top lip to lick off and it seemed to sooth it a little.

Earl has never had a sore throat before, that I was ever aware of (I am sure I would be aware if he did though!!). But I think making sure she has lots of fresh water is a very important matter to a dog when it has a sore throat. I am glad Lotty is recovering.

Update, Lotty has recovered fully from her sore throat and is in fine fettle. Tried to load a photo of her antics - she's now keeping us on our toes again, pleased to have her back (I think).
