We started the glucosamine over the weekend. Not sure how quickly they take to act. She’s been on the antibiotics for 5 days, as well. I can’t help but wonder if she still had a bladder infection from before I got her, because she never finished her antibiotics then. For sure with that cleared up, she’d be feeling 1,000 times better.

Tonight she was eating (pretty quickly, but it really shouldn’t have caused a problem) and she just started choking and coughing and “reverse sneezing” (as the vet calls it— not sure if that’s a real thing or not lol), and she almost threw up. I’m glad she didn’t, because I hate cleaning up doggy puke. Little brat tried to go into my room on the carpet, too! Thankfully she doesn’t walk very fast, especially not when she’s hacking her guts out. Anyways, the whole episode lasted a good minute or so. She was also snoring very loudly when she was taking her pre-bedtime nap, and it didn’t really sound too great. It was real gurgley. She also does that reverse sneezing thing when she gets stressed. Just something else to keep an eye, I suppose.
