My 10 year old terrier has lung disease not diagnosed but she displays all the significant symptoms of this and vet agrees however is insistent on putting her under anasthetic for an x Ray to diagnose . My dog has the doggy equivalent of COPD and there is huge risks from anasthetic. I’ve spoke to a lot of people on an online support group all of who have or had dogs with this illness and all of them say an emphatic No to anasthetic. What I want to know is is it standard practice to put dogs under for a chest x Ray? My dog is not lively at all and very subdued ( part of her illness ) . Apologies if grammar etc off but so stressed out with this .
