My Jack Russell, Eddie has had a snotty, not runny, nose for nearly 3 years following a bout of bronchitis. This is both nostrils equally. Thick, ranging from green to clear. Sneezing snot, reverse sneezing and obvious post-nasal drip due to the hocking and gagging and lots of other unpleasant trying to breathe noises that keep everyone up all night. We have been to three veterinarians. After suggestions of "only" $1800.00 for a rhinoscopy and an unnecessary dental. Vet #1 tried an antibiotic with no result. Then they cultured and tried the "right" antibiotic. During the third course Eddie developed hives, obviously this wasn't working anyway. Vet #2, an Internist, agreed with me that a dental would not resolve the issue. Since we could not afford $$$$ for diagnostics the vet thought it was rhinitis and prescribed an anti-inflammatory & antibiotic. No results. After some research on my part, Vet #1 was willing to try a course of prednisone but no results. Vet #3 suggested an inhaler, which we tried, no results. She had, however, recently seen a JRT who had all the tests. $1800.00 rhinoscopy, $800.00 CAT scan, $700.00 x-rays after the initial dental. All tests were inconclusive and the dog was euthanized. I can justify this option for Eddie as he is a healthy, approx 12 year old. We flush his nose several times a day with saline to loosen the snot so he can sneeze it out. I believe we are keeping Kleenex in business. He goes in to the bathroom when we take showers and at random times to steam his nose. Has anyone dealt with anything like this? Help!! Please don't tell me the "usual" causes as the vets have ruled those out. (grass up the nose, rotten teeth and most likely not cancer as there is no blood).
