Well, Kobie's mystery cough has gotten suddenly worse in the past few days. She was better and cough-free through most of February and was on the tapering-off phase of her prednisone, but this past Saturday morning she coughed for over two hours and even had a little blood in the foamy mucus she was spitting up. The vet put her on another round of antibiotics and continued the pred, but now she's having another coughing attack (3+ hours and counting). She'll have a chest x-ray later this morning, but frankly I think the vet's stumped.
You had mentioned that one of Dusty's siblings had a turkey allergy from the Innova, so I'm interested in that. How was it that turkey was determined to be the problem? What were his symptoms? And finally, just how common are food allergies? (from what I hear, not very common). The vet hasn't suggested changing Kobie's food, but we just might do that if nothing else will work for her.
Thanks for listening, and for anything you could tell me!
