In the older, large breed dog presented for evaluation of exercise intolerance, careful attention should be paid to laryngeal auscultation for stridor suggestive of laryngeal paralysis. Increased tracheal sensitivity and loud or adventitious lung sounds in cats or dogs with exercise intolerance but no systemic signs of illness suggest that bronchial narrowing, collapse, or inflammation could be responsible for exercise intolerance. Animals that display tachypnea on physical examination, abnormal lung sounds, and systemic signs of illness likely suffer from some form of pneumonia.
