New Born Pup
Hi again! I am in the US, I introduced myself a bit ago but will give a bit more detail. I recently adopted two very ill special needs pigs. The first was a hospice pig and sadly had to be put down but the second, Marie, is blind , has respiratory issues, and is fighting pneumonia. She is currently on baytril and doxycycline but does not seem to be getting much better. We went to the emergency vet last night and they sent us home with a nebulizer and another course of the same antibiotics. She is eating but has heavy breathing and nose discharge. She will not take the baytril any longer, we know every trick and have tried it with her but because she is blind she is especially wild when being held so every time it gets closer to her nose she wriggles and screams until she is very distressed and her breathing deteriorates. We are trying the baytril in the nebulizer and I am wondering if anyone has any experience with this? The emergency vet is not our normal vet but our normal vet is on vacation until the 26th. Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions.
