Reggie is feeling poorly

Keep dear little Reggie in your thoughts for the next few days. We are now just over a week since his meds stopped and this morning he crashed. So sad to see such a live wire so still and quiet. A trip to the vet has sadly got him back on anti biotics but the vet did agree that it's not his lungs that are the problem but his throat which has been my thoughts all along. We know he only has a size 6 trachea, but thankfully he shows no signs of suffering a soft palate problem so there is a chance that he may improve has his head develops. Only time will tell - but lets hope there is light at the end of his tunnel. The vet trip got us into a very interesting conversation about corporate vets and at which point does a young vet enter veterinary college as an animal lover and leave as a business man? Something I didn't realise is the alleged fact that many receptionists and nurses working for corporate companies receive bonuses for getting clients to have certain treatments. It is incredibly worrying that you could be getting things done to your animals simply because the girl on reception needs to pay for her holiday. We have increasingly been aware that vets often refuse treatment because the owners cannot afford to pay for it, but by all accounts as long as they offer euthanasia as an alternative they are legally covered to refuse the treatment. This can't be right surely? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.
