my dog having health problems 6 yr old maltese?i know you guys arent vets but, if anyone have had this problem with their dog, please tell me what it is. i'm taking it to the vet tomorrow anyways.
so i have a 6 yr old maltese. she has all her shots. she's playful, but about a week ago, she was spayed. she's almost fully recovered seeing her playful again.
the problem is.. she's been having these "attacks". it's like she's honking up spit and chocking at the same time. i know she's suffering because her eyes get huge like she's having a asthma attack or heart attack. i feel so helpless around her when she gets these attacks and she's also been sneezing a lot lot lately. oh yea, i don't think the spaying is the problem, this happened also before but it's occuring a lot more during these last couple of days.
the only thing that it could be is that i have been feeding it a little bit of cooked meats that humans eat like steak with no sauces etc.. and about 4 times, mcdonald's sausage mcmuffin but i stopped and it was pinky sized.
another thing is that i've smoked marijuana around my dog but i never blew smoke at it. the house was fogged up and stuff but i don't mean to harm my dog at all. i don't do any of these things to my dog anymore but i'm really concerned for it's safety at this point. if you have simliar experiences with dogs having this problem please give some advice after the vet visit. please.. thank you.
again.. i ALREADY know it's bad and i've said i've stopped doing it. please open your eyes and reread or don't say anything. you're not even helping.

No, I don't have similar experience because I wouldn't be irresponsible enough to feed my dog sausage and smoke anything around it.
Please stop harming your dog - you know very well what you need to do to let your dog be well again.

Could be a collapsed trachea, a common problem in toy dogs. The tube down her throat when she was spayed would have aggravated the condition.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with giving the dog cooked meat occasionally,just dont make a habit of it.If you like to smoke weed try doing it outside,as for the coughing my sons poodle does it,when she gets excited.Good Luck at the vets.

Sounds like she might have picked up a case of kennel cough at the vet while being spayed, or it could be irritation from the trach tube. If you are in PA, beware. There is a new form of influenza in the eastern part of the state. It mimics kennel cough, but has a higher morbidity rate. Usually, a kennel cough outbreak will affect 30% of a kennel. This influenza strain has a 70% rate. Not fatal usually, but it can still be a problem for geriatric dogs and young puppies.
