My Yorkie breathes fast, wheezes after dental work. Is it allergies?

Question

I have a 6 year old 5lb yorkie who just had her first teeth cleaning and needed one tooth extracted. When I picked her up she had a slight wheeze/virbration in her throat area and it was a rough night the night we brought her home. Today she has eaten and drank but I feel like she’s breathing fast maybe? At rest she’s at 44 breaths per min. She has been having seasonal allergies as well so i don’t know if the tube in her throat is just irritated it plus allergies is making her do it?

It could be irritation from the ET tube causing it, and since she has seasonal allergies, it could be a combination of both. Keep an eye on Abby, and if this problem continues, have her seen by a vet again. Best of luck.
