This sounds a bit like the problem my bitch has. But she has it in the
nose. Has had awful breath since she was about 6 months, teeth are fine.
Nothing in her throat. Recently, coinciding with a pregnancy, it got worse
and appears to be in one side of her nose, discharge through one nostril
only. Held it at bay during gestation & until weaning with amoxy, then took
her for xrays and scope. They got out a bit of spiny dried cedar "leaf",
but that was 3 weeks ago and she still has congestion, tho not as bad. Next
step is to send samples for biopsy, says the vet.
Has anyone had anything like this??
