Where do you live?

Our best bear Plott caught a few lions down here in AZ and ever since then he was never right. The vets in Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona all had different stories... They all said it could be Cocsimatosis or something like that... An infection from wild cats, even some house cats. It affects their respiratory systems and messes with their weight really bad... Cabo had to sleep sitting up against a wall so he could breathe.

I am sorry to hear, always a terrible day when someone loses a good dogs

i live in camp verde az ive got three more dogs but i cant trust one ones 5 months old and the others an old dog that just wont strike a track its gonna be tough after loosing that little dog i was realy hoping shed pull through

Wow... Maybe she had what Cabo had... Cabo's younger brother Ocho Loco had it too.

Some say here in AZ dogs can get Valley Fever, from the ground. It is like a spore that grows? I don't know much about it.

Again, I am so sorry for your loss

Always sad to lose a good one. Often there's a silver lining behind that cloud,hang-in.
Sorry for your loss.
