My puppy got soaked in rain, now sick. Could he have pneumonia?

Yes, it is quite possible the pneumonia has not resolved. She needs urgent reassessment by a vet and further medication, possibly intravenous fluids and antibiotics in order to stabilise her condition. Such severe pneumonia in a young pup is very concerning and can be fatal due to lung scarring and collapse. It is possible there may be underlying birth defects contributing to the original condition and/or her poor response to treatment

I am so sorry that you are dealing with such a huge disaster- I hope everyone is safe! Standing in the rain for a short time while using the bathroom isn't typically enough to cause an illness, but it may not help if he was trying to fight something off. A deep hack like you are describing could be from a few different things- if he was around other dogs about a week or so ago it could be an infectious cause. Also on the list would be a structural problem like collapsing trachea, or something physically being in his throat. If he seems to feel bad- not eating well, lethargic, etc I would take him in, especially being so young! If the cough is occsional and he still seems playful and eating well you could give it some time. I hope this helps and you all stay safe!!

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I would recommend having Chao examined by a veterinarian based on these symptoms. I am worried about a respiratory infection / possible pneumonia. This needs to be addressed sooner rather than later so that antibiotic therapy can begin right away. I hope this helps and hope she gets better soon!

Oh no, poor Ice! I'm sorry he's sick. This vomiting could be due to his respiratory infection if he's coughing a lot. I would have him seen by a vet for his symptoms. He may benefit from medications from the vet for his symptoms. If he's congested, you can put him in a room with a humidifier or take him into the bathroom with you when you take a shower. The steam from either may help temporarily with his congestion.

It sounds as your puppy is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

It sounds like your dog picked up a severe upper respiratory tract infection. This could be kennel cough, but also canine influenza or pneumonia. Please take him to your veterinarian for an exam. Since he is shivering, and lethargic, this could be a life-threatening condition.

The most likely diagnosis for a puppy with Jack Jack's symptoms is parvo virus. I suggest you get him to a vet as soon as possible for an exam and parvo test. This is serious and life-threatening. Do not try to continue to treat him at home. He may not have parvo as there are other things that can, of course, cause his symptoms but regardless of what is ailing him he is very sick and needs veterinary intervention.
