Olesia, was owned by Izzy, a 35lb Spanish Water Dog (SWD), Diagnosed at 1.5 years old - TLI results 1.. Izzy passed away on February 13, 2020 at 15 years old. She lived with EPI for 13+1/2 years. It was because of Izzy that Epi4Dogs was started... she was the inspiration. May her legacy of helping others with EPI continue for as long as needed.........

My pug is sick right now with the symptoms of this mysterious illness. It’s been 3 weeks and she just started round 2 of doxycycline. My younger golden coughed for 2 weeks and when he stopped, she started. But hers is much worse. My dogs don’t go anywhere which is even more confusing on how they were infected. Thank you for this info, it was helpful!

My dog, who is full of unstoppable energy, suddenly calmed down, reacted weakly and breathed shallowly. I immediately gave him ivermectin and after three days he is doing great. He is coughing a bit, trying to expel phlegm, but he is happy again.
