#Bordatella

[coffee-mage-sans-caffeine]

Just a reminder that kennel cough season is again upon us. Today, at Benton's (acd mix, right) agility class the final student arrived and her dog came in and laid down in his crate and made a sound like he was choking slightly on a treat. I assumed he'd done that. Until the sound came again five seconds later, and again. And again.

"Is he choking on something?" asked the instructor after about 15 seconds of coughing.

"Oh, no. He's just started making this sound sometimes. I think it's because he's excited. It's kind of cute."

The dog makes a horking, horrible cough.

"He needs to go home and stay home for two weeks," says the instructor. "And he needs a vet."

She caught it in less than a minute. Within two minutes she was sanitizing the area around where that dog has been. It was impressive, but now Benton has been exposed to what's probably either kennel cough or canine flu or any of the other communicable coughing illnesses.

Tribble, the greyed brindle next to him, is 13 years old. She has dementia. Benton is her emotional support friend. She takes her emotional cues from him. Without him, she gets very upset and can't tolerate being out of our sight. So I can't quarantine him from her for weeks over a two minute, distanced exposure. But she's elderly and if she catches something from him, it will be hard on her body.

Please be careful. Check if your dog needs an updated bordatella vaccine. Don't share water or treats. Wash your hands after handling other people's dogs. Ask your instructors at classes to do an email blast about the symptoms of canine respiratory illness and ask people to stay home. Avoid daycare playgroups if you can.

rizzo got. 3 shots at the vet today and then got into the fridge and ate almost a whole ziplock gallon bag of bone-in fried chicken which means im playing a fun game called “is he acting like this bc of the sedatives, the shots, or does he have a perforated bowel?” bonus: he’s not letting me touch him bc hes tired and sore and probably scared bc we had to manhandle him a little at the bet bc he was NOT happy about the shots or the exam

this morning we got up early to take the dogs to the vet and when we got there i found out its actually scheduled for next week. thats how things are Going dfjsdaklf

[pangur-and-grim]

we should have the results for Belphie's various swabs tomorrow!

I'm so curious, because at this point I'm 65% sure this is something that has transferred to me zoonotically. this is because:

I've had a recurring throat/sinus infection that goes away when I'm on antibiotics, and then comes back once my dosage is finished

all the cats have (one by one) fallen ill to to an upper respiratory infection that leaves them with sensitive-to-the-touch throats and sinus problems

their URIs cleared up almost immediately on antibiotics

once all three cats were on antibiotics, my sore throat went away (despite it having been a persistent problem for 62 days)

I know there are strep and bordatella bacteria that can hop between cats and humans and cause mischief (example here), so it's not too far a stretch. maybe the mystery will be solved tomorrow!

I had to look this up. You made me put the phrase “bordatella cookies” into my browser and now it’s there forever.

they need to invent a lustful emoji for when youre eatin those pepperidge farm bordetella cookies whatever theyre called. with some tea man christ jesus

[grantihare]

good news for anyone wondering about mordred!! he may not have asthma, his swab test came back positive for bordatella so im picking up some beefy medicine for him this morning and if it clears up completely then hes golden!! if hes still a lil wheezy but mostly better then theyll try some asthma meds as well just in case hes got a double whammy going rn but !!! he might be feeling better soon if its just the bordatella !! im so excited for him to feel like himself again

[fairytalesreality]

so kinda i like a bordatella vaccine? Im down!!

Please God let this pan out positively. If this approach works and can prevent re-infection, it'll be just what the doctor ordered.

[hyperverbal]

bordatella is a beautiful name for a baby girl

[penitentwoman]

Poor baby ernie is getting his rabies, DA2PP, and bordatella vaccines soon…I’m gonna see if he can get them today but he has an ear infection so maybe not

Boğmaca ile oluşan öksürüğe dikkat!

https://pazaryerigundem.com/haber/180478/bogmaca-ile-olusan-oksuruge-dikkat/

Boğmaca ile oluşan öksürüğe dikkat!

Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Uzmanı Dr. Orhan Köksal çocuklarda oluşabilecek öksürükte ebeveynlerin dikkat etmesi gerekenlerle ilgili bilgi verdi.

İSTANBUL (İGFA) – Öksürük, solunum sisteminin aşırı sekresyon (salgı) ve yabancı maddelerden temizlemeye yönelik önemli savunma mekanizması ve koruyucu bir refleksi olarak da tanımlanır.

Öksürük pediatri polikliniğine başvuruların en sık nedenlerinden biridir.

Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Uzmanı Dr. Orhan Köksal, pediatride hekim ebeveyn iletişimin önemli olduğuna dikkati çekerek, “Öksürüğün problemli olup olmadığının anlaşılmasında birinci kilit nokta iyi alınmış bir hikayedir. Ayrıntılı öyküyü ebeveynler vermektedir.  Burun akıntısı, halsizlik, kırgınlık, ateş, genize doğru akıntı ile beraber öksürük varsa burada çoğunlukla neden, soğuk algınlığı, nezle, grip gibi viral üst solunum yolları enfeksiyonudur.  Genize doğru akıntıyı azaltan ilaçlar 6 yaşından büyük çocuklarda kullanılabilmektedir. Krup ya da akut laringotrakeit genelde virüs enfeksiyonlarına bağlı gelişen ateş, burun akıntısı, seste kabalaşma, havlar tarzda öksürük, gırtlak altı soluk borusu kısmının ani daralmasına bağlı stridor denilen genelde nefes alırken olan hırıltı görülmektedir. Şikayetler gece ve sabaha doğru daha fazla olmaktadır. Tedavi, gerektiğinde soğuk buhar ve steroid tedavisini de kapsayabilmektedir. Astım öksürükleri gün içerisinde olabildiği gibi, gece uykuya daldıktan 1-2 saat sonra başlar ve giderek artar. Soğuk hava, kuru ve rutubetli hava ve eforla beraber öksürük görülebilmektedir. Viral üst solunum yolları enfeksiyonu sonrası şikayetler artabilir. Sık sık nefes alıp verme,  nefes verirken zorlanma ve hışıltı, göğüste çekilmeler olabilmektedir.   Genellikle anne, baba, kardeş veya yakın akrabalarında astım, egzama, alerjik nezle gibi alerjik hastalık öyküs�� vardır. Üst solunum yolu enfeksiyonu sonrasında 2-3 haftadan sonra devam eden öksürükler astım açısından incelenmelidir” ifadelerini kullandı.

Boğmacanın Bordatella pertussis adlı bir bakterinin yol açtığı bir alt ve üst solunum yolu hastalığı olduğuna dikkati çeken Uzm. Dr. Köksal, erken dönemde başlanan antibiyotiklerle öksürüğün kontrolünün sağlanabildiğini belirterek, en önemli önlemin aşılama olduğunu kaydetti.

Dr. Köksal, öksürük ile ilgli şu sorulara yanıt aranması gerektiği, nedenlerle açıklanamıyorsa diğer nadir görülen nedenler yönünden incelenmesi gerektiğini sözlerine ekledi:

    Öksürük ne zamandan beri var?

    Öksürüğün şiddeti, sıklığı nedir? Ne kadardır sürüyor?

    Niteliği nedir?  Balgamlı mı? Değil mi? Kesik kesik mi?  Kuru öksürük mü?

    Günün hangi vaktinde daha çok oluyor. Gece uykudan uyandırıyor mu?  

    Tetikleyen bir durum var mı? (Oyun oynadıktan sonra, beslenme sonrası, soğuk havaya geçince gibi)

It’s been a very exhausting few weeks. Cloud Strife’s now been home three whole weeks and he’s growing and learning by leaps and bounds.

He went to the vet for his second DHPP and Bordatella. He’s now eating 3 cups of food plus lots of treats every day. He’s learning to talk with his buttons, and he’s learning so many new words and positive behaviors.

Crate training is going well, as is pen training. Rides in the truck are getting better. Housebreaking is getting better.

Still need to work on leash manners (improving but still not there), nipping and being mouthy, and learning focus and patience. But that’s a lot to expect from a 12 week old puppy.

We are trying to lay down good foundations. He’s learning to meet other humans, but he’s scared of my brother-in-law’s dog, Copper.

It’s hard to update when I only get so much time to myself. Working with Cloud is fun but it takes up a lot of time.

[killbaned]

well! we may not want to hear this besties but sometimes. when the thought of doing tasks is making you horrifically anxious to the point of shutting down, the only thing to do...are the fucking tasks!

i slept badly. fell asleep about two am woke up a bit before six bc of The Horrors. couldn't get back to sleep bc of my guts keeping me awake. finally won a battle with the demons. realized i'd still likely be awake for another hour or two anyway before being able to settle back to sleep and the whole time i was just. getting upset because i'm tired i feel awful i have all these things to do because i made a specific set of plans for how to maximize tasks vs rest while i'm off these days.

so i figured. well. i managed a nine hour shift saturday feeling bad like this and a seven hour shift sunday feeling worse. i can manage a few hours of less intensive tasks.

i did laundry, i cleaned out the fridge, collected the trash and took it to the dumpster. put the dirty dishes from my pasta yesterday in the dishwasher along w the dirty stuff from the fridge. ran the dishwasher. wiped down the sinks and counters. i took the dogs in to get their nails done which was the big thing i was worried about bc their yearly shots expire tomorrow. i had the adhd time sink of "i have like two months to take a day off for their shots" and that was. two months ago. oops. i found out i DON'T need a bordatella shot to get them bathed so i am treating myself and paying someone else to wash the dogs! now i don't have to do that task tomorrow!! this is huge bc the chihuahua is fine i can do him in the sink no problem but rufus is too big and has to be done in the tub and it's suffering badly. it's a lot of work and strain and it means if i'm bathing him that is the ONLY task i'm doing that day.

i also stopped at the store, got a few things i needed. i checked mom's email to make sure i haven't missed anything from dcf (i have not which. L. can i get the food money back please-). i checked MY email and remembered to contact my dental ins company about the oopsie daisy with that.

literally i have done what i thought was going to be two days worth of tasks in the span of about four hours. do i feel better physically? no! i'm still tired, my guts are still bad, i'm getting a migraine i'm gonna have to cave and take meds for.

do i feel better mentally, like perhaps when i bring the dogs back i'll be able to settle in and settle down and actually relax without being plagued by the thoughts of All The Things Needing Done?

absolutely.

First time bathing the puppy and I trimmed his nails and paw fuzz since no one did it yet. He was actually pretty good about it but he wiggled and was terrified of the hairdryer. I didn't have to use it too much because his fur dried surprisingly quickly. I think he came out okay. Gave him some treats for being a good boy.

I had to take him to the vet for my mom (he got poked in the butt with his last round of shots and the bordatella nose spray) and then took him into work so everyone got to see him and thought he was cute. He got to sniff many sniffs and got some turkey snacks off my mom's sandwich.
