Asthma attack

What do you give for asthma attack. I have a 3 year old female that starts beathing loud some times in the field. Sounds like an asthma attack. Has anyone seen this before and what is treatment. Thanks, Danny

No offense taken. I think this is a lot more serious than that. I have an appointment with vet today. Her mother was just operated on for a tumor that was quite intrusive of her mammary glands, had to remove 4 of them.

Took her to the vet on Fri. X Ray shows some kind of infection in the lungs. On 3 meds now and will retest this Fri. for any changes. I was wondering if the tainted dog food from china might be responsible since tumors were found in her kennel mate at about the same time. Anyone else heard anything on this ?? Thanks, Danny

pz-thanks for the info. I don't think that is it.. She has no symptoms at all untill she runs for awhile. Then she has loud breath sounds. Danny
