my boy is 1yr, had kennel cough(nasel) done Nov 4th, saw lump on the 9th, no x-rays taken, not strangles, 2nd culture showed (after tube out) some e-coli, not much abnormal, back on both cipro & cephalexin with hot packing, lump has gone down some, size of a quarter now, going back to vets Wednesday morning to ck another sample from lump. He plays, eats, stools, temp, all normal. No signs of any other spots on body. will update Wednesday, thank you for suggestions.
