The Battle of AnTETam

[Thermodolia]

To be fair, that seems like the best thing to do regardless of what the condition is because that definitely doesn't sound normal.

Started last night. We thought he'd be fine by morning, but he just kept on coughing up.

How think is the foam? Is it light and bubbly or pretty damn thick

A bit light? It's more mucus-y spit than white foam, really.

[The Supreme Magnificent High Swaglord]

Okay, my mind is a tad calmer.

First, I would like to apologize again to Pasong, even if it won't be accepted.

Second, when I mentioned that, I misspoke. I was trying to express my ludicrously strong fear and dislike of dogs, cats, and arthropods. However, I recognize that the wording was a tad too strong for my purposes. A better way to phrase it would be "Although I have a very strong fear and dislike of dogs, cats, and arthropods, I understand that you and your dog are in a period of emotional distress, and I offer my condolences."

Third, I would like to apologize again to Pasong. While my mother says that it seems "fake" to overapologize, I mean this sincerely, and this appears to be the best I can do, since we are separated by computer screens on different continents.

Dog coughing and spitting up white foam, had to leave him to go to work. Now worried sick.

That sucks. Hoping for the best for you. And pupper of course.

Ok that probably rules out rabies, sounds like something he ate food or otherwise isn't agreeing with him.

Possibly. He keeps trying to chew up everything in the room. Pupper is doin us a scare. 15/10 would spend eternity in vet for.

Nope. Vet is actually a pretty nice place. If pupper weren't sick I would let him play with the other dogs waiting around (they let the doggos just roam around the shop/vet/grooming parlor (three in one!), so it's a really nice place to wait around.

Not liking dogs is one thing. Hating dogs is another thing, saying you "take comfort" in the suffering of dogs is unforgivable.

That's nice, yeah.

I meant to say that I irrationally hate dogs. I misspoke. I misspoke in a really, really, really^99999999999999999999999999 awful manner. I politely and honestly implore your forgiveness. I didn't mean to cause you and your dog distress. Really, I didn't mean it.

He might have something that irritates him and/or has something lodged in him.

Either way if you can't take him yourself do you have someone who can?

My girlfriend's in the condo with him, but the vet won't come in until later at 5 (weird scheduling because Sunday), 4 hours from now. Luckily enough, 5 is the time I get off work, so we'll just meet up at the vet later. Poor pupper is being distracted from being miserable with lots of play.

Ok well at least there is someone with him. How old is the dog?

Almost nine months. He is a good dog.

It might be possible that he's teething. The try to chew everything is a sign of that

He already has all his teeth, though. You may be confusing my nine-month old dog with a nine-month old infant.

Dang. He sounds like a good boy. I seriously hope he's okay.

*Shrug* it's pretty possible. I'm not a animal doctor so..

Though once he's better you must post pics

I also sincerely hope that he's okay, as much as the awful, awful word choice made it seem otherwise. Is there anything that I can do to help? Could I give your dog an internet hug?

1000/10 would spend a month's salary for vet bills for (which I almost actually did )

I would love to post a picture. In fact, somebody should start a thread filled only with pictures of our pets.

For now, I present to you a meme:

Hmmm... perhaps tell her to restrict the dog's access to food for a while, until the vet makes a check to see what's up? Puppers had access to the food during the night, yes?

What you're saying reminds me of a nutrient or allergy issue, wherein something the pup is eating in the food is causing the vomitting. To my vague memory, a dog won't absorb well food like that, which is probably making him hungrier and would explain his strange behavior.

I've been around dog breeding and kennels all my life, where this stuff is pretty common. Still, don't know if I'm right tho.... Vet will tell you.

Best of fortunes, yes.

Yes yes thank you, yes. He did have access to food, which makes us think he may have eaten something along with the food. Either way, dog's fine for now - stable, at least. He's still coughing up here and there. Giving him some glucose water (or sugar water? idk what it's called) to make sure he doesn't go too hungry/thirsty.

[Luziyca]

...interesting talk about dogs.

Luzi, do you have any ideas on how to properly make amends with Pasong? I broke our friendship, and it's my duty to fix it.
