Dog / Mix - Answered 1368 days ago
My pet dog has a runny nose while awake, and suffers from a stuffy nose when asleep. He often cannot sleep well because of it, and wakes up panting and unable to breathe. He sometimes strains too much to get air that he ends up defecating. We've had medication prescribed before but it didn't work, so we don't use it anymore. Do you have any advice for us?

I think rhinitis problem going on. Please ask doctor to do a nasal swab analysis to know causative agent. Mostly it is due to fungal infections. I will advise for dear for nasal swab.
