Dosen't anyone know about this or have had dealings with how it was treated.

if you do a search on this site you will get information about it.  Someone on champdogs suggested this might be the problem with my staff and I had to get it ruled out last year when my dog was having respiritory and stomach problems.  When I raised it with my vet she didn't seem convinced (I don't think she knew much about it) but I did some reading about it and talked them in to testing for it.  If your dog has it I remember reading that it is a nightmare to treat and needs nasal washes and is very difficult to get rid of.  I think it might be called aspergillus but I'm sure someone will be along with more information - I think it might have been tohme who provided me with the information

Aspergillus, or farmer's lung in humans.

Caused by fungal spores.

The vet will treat it by flushing the nose with Canesten liquid. ( Under General Anaesthetic)
