DIAH Series: Using The Aerodawg Inhaler

[@deborahparrott4983]

This was very helpful! My vet did not give directions on how to use the device and medication.

My pharmacist also recommended that you clean the pets mouth and the device end after each application. They residue form the inhaler can cause a rash in cases.

My pharmacist said the same thing. The dog could get thrush

Thank you for the cleaning the animals face advice! I’ll spread the word!

My vet just recommended this product, same brand too. It's not what I pictured it to be, actually looks a lot less invasive than I thought it would. Very cute dog, btw :)

That's great! We hope it really helps your pet. It can seem like a lot and can be a little tricky... but, we hope this video helps you visualize all of the things to look for before you become a pro at it!

Just started using this and my doggy tolerates it very well.

My dog is a Yorkie mix with a tiny narrow snout. I use both mask attachments, and she allows me to put it on her, but I can’t figure out how to create a good seal each time. ~2 of 5 times will indicate she is breathing the medication. Alternatively, that little green tab stays in place. Any suggestions?

Hello. What size did you use? I can not decide which size would be right for my dog. My dog's weight ​​varies between 9 kg and 10.5 kg. It is a mix between dachshunds and cockers. The size of the dog muzzle is half of both (the length and width of both breeds). The measure around muzzle is about 20 cm. Thanks for your time and answers. (I apologize for the errors in the text. English is not my first language.)

Hello! So, a lot of this is based on what the face/snout of your pet is. So, a Small may be fine for your dog... but, that may be difficult to generalize just based on weight and breed. We hope you find the right fit for your pup and it works great!

You wrote really well…I would have thought English was your first language! You go!!!

I cannot get my dog to let me put the devise on his nose. Any suggestions?

[@Apccvet]

We understand this can be frustrating. We recommend a few things: First, positive reinforcement! Practice putting the inhaler (without the medication)on your dog for a few seconds then give it a treat. Do this as many times as you can every hour. Over time your pup should become comfortable with the inhaler on their nose. Second, when it is time to give the medication, stand with their back in between your legs and their nose facing away from you. If they do decide to wiggle away, it should be easier for you to take control and keep them in place. Third, if you are still having trouble, get a second person to help. We hope this helps!
