Pet's info: Dog | Pug | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 14 days old
My pug is having a runny nose and she is panting most of the time. It seems as if her nose is blocked and she is somewhat breathing partly from the nose and partly from the mouth. She has been like this since two days including today and I am noticing that she is less energetic today because of that. What should I do?

HI, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Coco!! Since she is such a young baby and because of her breed I think she should see a Vet as soon as you can. Also since it has now been 2 days and she is less energetic. Coco may have an upper respiratory infection from a viral or bacterial infection, or kennel cough, or pneumonia or the flu. The Vet, after their exam, may recommend chest X-rays and likely will prescribe antibiotics. I hope this helps and I hope Coco is back to her cute Pug self soon!
