Thanks very much, Samantha. I admire your pluck and refusal to simply buy into the conventional medical model that's let you down before.
It almost sounds like you're describing what we call "reverse sneezing" in the US -- kind of a spasmodic gasping for breath, comes in waves, but I think the sneezing --> cough later sounds fitting for the canine flu I've heard of.
Three doses of a simple remedy, found where ever homeopathic remedies are sold, and steady improvement to normal in 5 days. That's pretty awesome!
Thanks for sharing the experience from an Irish perspective.
Readers: geography is a small player, as you can see. Samantha matched her dogs' symptoms with those of the remedies mentioned, decided phosphorus sounded close, gave it a go, and had a brilliant outcome. For probably $5 or less!
