    Doggy Asthma Attack? What to do.
    Hey everyone...

    So a gal I work with was up last night with her dog because she said that the dog was having an asthma attack. It couldn't breathe and was shaking. She gave it some benedryl and she said it seemed to help, the dog finally calmed down after an hour or so

    What do you do for a dog when this happens? Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    I had an asmatic dog on medication many years ago. It sometimes became very serious. I would consult with the Vet and not just give benadryl, particularly without knowing the dosage which is appropriate for the dog.
