Any ideas on what is making him sick?

Jamielee Nelson · 07-07-2008, 01:38 AM

My 1.5 year old male tonight started to act very lethargic. He also started to drool on his right side though he had a very good apatite during dinner and was very active up to 8pm.
His right side of his mouth by the gum line (I call it his lips) are very swollen and hard. It is also sensitive to the touch.
Anyone had this happen before?

He fought off a very bad infection was he was 6 months old that required surgery on his neck because of an infection that made his whole neck/face swell and it become hard… the vet could never tell me what happened or why. The infection lasted 2 months and didn’t respond to the antibiotics or steroids they tried to put him on.

I am taking him to the vet tomorrow first thing in the morning. As far as I know he didn’t come in contact with any bees or snakes or anything of that nature.

I would greatly appreciate anything you guys can offer as to what it could possibly be or if you have ever hear of such a thing.

Thank you.
