sick baby boy


Our boy has been sick these past couple of days. He has a weird cough with heavy wheezing which indicates an upper respiratory infection as he has had one before. He has been very clingy with me all weekend. He just wants mommy's lap these days. He went in to the vet today to get his antibioitics in him so he can start feeling better soon.

As dog parents, we need to keep a watchful eye over our dogs. Like, I could have ignored the coughing/wheezing and thought it was just allergies. The clinginess can be a bit much at times, but I could tell from his behavior that he hasn't been feeling well.

We need to listen to them through their actions and make sure we get them the medical attention they need before small coughs or aches and pains become a big problem. The good thing about Massimo is that he is so outspoken about how he's feeling. He will not hesitate to let you know :)

"A dog doesn't care if you're rich or poor, big or small, young or old. He doesn't care if you're not smart, not popular, not a good joke-teller, not the best athlete, nor the best-looking person. To your dog, you are the greatest, the smartest, the nicest human being who was ever born. You are his friend and protector..." -Marly & Me
