our WCS is nearly 1 and up to this point has been basically bomb proof! He shoots through fields, digs into everything and is a very happy chap.
but suddenly on Saturday, he started to get quite poorly - blood and discharge from his nose, breathing quickly. The vet thought something might be stuck up there so they operated yesterday - there was nothing in there but she suspects something was there at some point that has given him an infection. He has very thick green mucus and can't really breathe through his nose. He's on antibiotics and anti inflammatories.
Do you know how long it takes for the antibiotics to kick in? She thought he would be better by Thursday but wondered what others experience was - he's back at the vet's on Saturday for a check up. We hate seeing him unwell! He's eating and drinking as normal but we're not used to him not having that 100mph whirlwind energy that cockers normally have! We're keeping him calm and cool indoors and he's allowed out for a short on lead walk tonight for the first time since he got unwell.
