Thank you for this video ,I have shitzu that has heart failure and kidney failure and is on 4 meds for all this .she had a stroke and recovered quickly but has no appetite so she takes entice medication to stimulate her palate or make her hungry ,but I’ve noticed her breathing she has some stomache or flank are movement like it sucks in when she exhales ,strange and my other dogs don’t have this type breathing movement ,this video first I’ve seen that explains the dog could be having hard time breathing

My 12 year old dog was in respiratory at home. She walked to the clinic but once she passed away at the examination table, while on oxygen. The X-rays showed several soft tissue lesions and and enlarged liver.
I’m astonished that she walked to the clinic, was jumping and playing days before and succumbed like this. Does this happen?
