My Dog Snores Louder Then I Do
 

This pup is only about 5 months old, is not some pug nose little thing, not fat and doesn't have any breathing problems. He plays hard for hours but when he lays down to go to sleep in the other room you can hear him at the other end of the house. He's even woke me up a few times at while I'm in bed cause he snores loud. What a lug.:bat:

pretty dog

What a cutie! Sounds to me like your only solution is going to be a good set of ear plugs...

That is an expensive dog.

Hows he doing now?

...get him some breathe right strips...lol

With what you got into him you should just be happy he's breathing at all. lol

That's a handsome pup. What kind is he again?

You need to get him some Breathe-Rights....

He's a BMC (Black Mouth Cur) You all ain't just a kiddin I got enough money in him. He's just a little shy of a $3000 pup so far. Bt he's doin great now. He's gone from a low of 9 pounds 45 days ago to almost 40 now. My own special blend of make em grow food ya know.

For those out there wonderin the price is because the preacher/breeder I got him from was nice enough to send him home with us knowin that he had Parvo goin around his place. The day after we brought him home I took him to the vet cause he wasn't doin so well. He spent the next 14 days on 24 hour IV fluids and didn't eat or drink anything by mouth for 18 days. The vets gave him up for dead and we decided to bring him home to die basically. I couldn't do it though. Every 2 hours for 4 days I forced an eye dropper full of different concoctions down his throat around the clock. He would bring most of it back up but evedintally kept enough to keep him goin. On the 4th day he finally started keepin it down and the race was back on. He's been back to the vets office now for shots several times and every time they just shake their heads and wonder how. They even have pictures of him up to show other parvo owners. Their drugs may not be able to do it but my magical elixirs sure can.:U:

interesting......we also have a black mouth cur/mountain cur, not sure what the diff is but mine dont snore and they are good dogs

OMG. thats such a nice thing to do! most people either wouldnt care enough to save the dog or they were just not finanically stable... i understand that... but thank you for saving that dog. i cant stand it when people put dogs down for no reason!

whats parvo anyways?

We didn't have the money either. I had to pullout the credit cards to pay the vet each day and had till the end of the month to sell a horse to pay for the credit cards. But it all worked in the end. For better or worse the way we are with critters we didn't have much choice. When the vet told me what was goin on the first day and that this would be an expensive venture no matter the outcome, I told him as long as he keeps fightin we'll keep givin him the chance.

Parvo as near as I understand it is a viral infection that attacks and kills the intestines. Nothing passes and the body can't absorb anything it takes in so it all comes back out. The virus within a few days attacks other organs and almost always leads to death. And above all is contagious beyond belief. Every two weeks my entire living area and yard the he had access to had to be complelety disinfected with a bleach solution. I bought a carpet shampooer and did the carpets using the solution in it and sprayed all the baseboards and yard with a 5 gallon sprayer of it. All the shoes and cloths had to be washed in it to not spread it to other properties. It's a nightmare. No pup will ever come into this house again without a stop at the vet first to be tested. It's cheap insurance.
