I am not sure exactly what your pup's problem is.

I am guessing you believe he has a urinary tract infection. One thing to remember about antibiotics is this: you should never give "a" dose of antibiotics (you can make things worse that way).

Instead, you should always 1) research the problem, 2) select the right antibiotic for the job, and 3) then give the selected antibiotic at the right dosage, at the right frequency, and for the right duration of treatment.

For a more complete understanding of what I am talking about, I suggest you take a moment to read my article Understanding Antibiotics (http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum/content.php?176).

Hope this helps,

Jack

LOL, and he may well have, but the answer would be the same regardless ;)

(Although there would probably be a greater variety of potential causes for wheezing, which would make identifying the actual problem more critical.)
