My 5 month old black lab has been sneezing for a couple of days and has a runny nose. Do you think he has kennel cough. He had it when he was 10 weeks old but it doesn't seem as bad this time. He is fine in himself. Is antibiotics the only way to treat it or can I let it run its course.

Hi Susie,
I'm new on here too. Sorry I can't help as I've never had to deal with kennel cough but I hope your puppy's feeling better by now.

Hi, yes it could be kennel cough, sure thing it is something. Keep an eye on him if it improves in a few days then yes I would think it was kennel cough. If he is ok in himself youcan let it run it's course. AB's only help with any secondary infection.
