Hi Greg
Well done for taking it to the vet. You don’t say what treatment they gave, but pneumonia is often caused by lungworm so that should also be treated.
Antibiotics would normally be needed over a week but perhaps they gave a long acting. Advocate @ 0.3ml/kg – single dose spot on treatment for the lungworm
Good luck with it
