I have an 8 year old Pomeranian that is suffering from a heart problem as well as suspected allergies, he is currently on enalapril for his heart and chlorpheniramine for his allergies. He continues to suffer from chronic coughing. His symptoms get worse in the spring but do continue throughout the year. I am in need of suggestions as to a medication change.

In my professional estimation, humane euthanasia would be the best solution. Please visit your vet for this at the first opportunity.

I recommend euthanasia. Poor guy, I'm sure he'll be missed.

I recommend euthanizing this dog. There is no hope for a recovery and he is suffering every day that he lives.

Have a nice day!
