Question
My Siberian Husky, Kiba is about 1.5 years old. My fiance` & I adopted him from a shelter a week ago & the day after we got him, I noticed that his nosed dripped a lot & its a brownish-yellow color. He also seems lethargic, & also seems 2 have an asthma type of breathing reaction. What do you think can be the cause(s)?

Answer
Nichole,  Please take Kiba to the vet.  Sounds like a sinus infection and he will need some antibiotics for this.  PLEASE don't delay - you don't want this to turn into something else more costly than a sinus infection...

good luck and thanks for "taking in" an adult rescued dog!!!!
