Sick Dog? Sometimes All You Have to Do is Patiently Wait

This is a tough situation for a dog owner. Trips to the vet aren't cheap, and you hate to not act and possibly let things get worse. I was just faced with this situation back in March, my dog was acting weird, she'd just kind of stand there, and not really jump up and lay on the couch like normal. I debated all morning what to do, maybe she just had a stomach ache? I ended up taking her to the vet just to be same, the vet said she had a minor respiratory infection and she got some antibiotics for it, so I guess I did the right thing. But I certainly know the feeling in the moment.
