It could be caused by a lot of things, so it's better to get him seen by
a expert. Has Muddy been on a heart worm preventative since you've had
him?
We don't have heartworm in this part of the province though it is further up north. He hasn't been on any heartworm meds.

I thought of one thing that he possibly could have ingested. The other night we had a bear wandering through our yard and Muddy was doing his job and completely freaking out. The next day we put a curtain up on the window in their room so they couldn't see the bear hoping it would help calm them down. We used some push pins to put the curtain up and each morning my husband was opening the window after he took the dogs outside to let some fresh air into the room. I'm wondering if he dropped one of the tacks on the ground and if Muddy might have eaten it. His vision isn't as good these days and he might have thought it was a stray kibble?!?
