Laila started acting really wierd friday night. We had relatives over, 5, and she was happy to play with them and sleep alot on them. Later in the night she wanted nothing to do with me or my wife, and didn't want to play at all. Saturday she didn't want to be by me at all(wife at a meeting), and kept running downstairs and wanting outside. She was really itchy and didn't want to play with me out there either, just play through the fence with the neighbors beagle and didn't want to come inside. I went to work and my wife came home a little later and gave her a bath in baby shampoo to try and help with the itching. When I came home from work I let her out of the kennel and she just ran downstairs, so I let her outside to do her thing. She came back inside on her own but would not go upstairs. I sat down there with her and she finally laid on me but was itchy, had some shakes, gagging some, and was 'snoring' while awake. I checked her skin, it looked normal, mouth looked normal, but her ears were red and it felt like there was a nickel in each one. She calmed down after a bit so I put her in the kennel and called the clinic then got 6 hours of sleep, Laila slept the whole time too. We got up this morning and she had more energy, no 'snoring' or gagging, but her ears were still the same. I took her to the clinic and they checked her out, no mites or anything they could see. She got a steroid shot and some ear drops we are to give her twice a day. She is doing alot better now, running all over the house, but still not very interested in me. Her ears aren't swollen now an hour after the shot and some drops. I have a regular vet appt. scheduled Wednesday for her 2nd set of shots, so I hope she is all better. Sorry for the long post, just worried about my baby.
