I've been searching the web for info on respiratory distress, but can't seem to 
find what i'm looking for.

Kisa's breathing is very rapid and deep, and she has her mouth slightly open 
most of the time.  I can't decide if I should take her in to be put to sleep.

I am just wondering if anyone has experience with this, and how long will an 
animal last in this sort of condition?  I am sure she isn't feeling very well 
at all, but I don't know if she is in pain, or just some discomfort.  If this 
is going to go on for days, I should probably put her to sleep.  

How will an animal die if the respiratory distress keeps getting worse?  Will 
it be a painful ending, or just a cessation of breathing eventually?

Thanks for any input.

Cassandra
