I don't know if dogs get hairballs. Not that I know, but anything is possible I guess. My vet did ask if she grooms herself. Not much, but she licks her feet a little.

I was worried maybe something from that, something from the dirt outside? Glad I don't put much on the lawn...

I am gonna get all of them to the vet anyway. Just in case. But she's just fine now. Not even coughing much. Little dogs - especially Poms - will do that. (It's more like a honk than a cough.) At least that's what the breeders and rescues tell me . Weak tracheas, supposedly, and they say not to leave their collars on, some you have to use a harness to walk. But maybe allergies are part of it too.

At any rate, we are not buying the bulk mini bones at Anderson's any more.

Another concern was that tumor hx. I was thinking she's so big, could there be another tumor in her abdomen somewhere causing this? So I want to get her looked at even if she does seem to be okay right now.
