Just if anything looks out of place please? Dog is a pug x 8yrs and has been struggling to breathe, watery Brown fluid coming from mouth. Just a little bit. She's all out of sorts.

Hello. I'm afraid that if you check our site rules, you'll see that we don't interpret radiographs.  For one thing, although these radiographs may be abnormal, I am seeing them completely out of context; I dont know the age, breed, sex or why the picture was taken.  Furthermore, assuming that a vet has taken it, they will offer some explanation of what they have found; an assessment carried out by someone who knows the symptoms, clinical signs and has examined the pet, is infinitely better than mine, which will only serve to muddy the waters.  If a proper second opinion is preferred, your vet will usually be happy to send the original radiographs and their early findings to get one for you - most vets see second opinions as a constructive exercise if time allows.  'Do we have time to get a second opinion on these picture or would it be okay to send for one afterwards?' is usually a constructive question. I think that if you search for 'second opinion' and 'interpret radiographs' in our blog, you will get a better explanation than this.  Always here to answer general questions - wishing you and the patient all the best.
