might have kennel cough my yorkie had this

Kennel cough is always the first assumption and a lot of times this comes from the vets as well. The fact that he hasn't brought this up kinds of rules it out in his head.
My dog used to cough in the morning but only then. I eventually put it down to the fact the heating came on early and she got too warm and dry. As soon as I switched the heating off it disappeared. Speak to the vet again if it continues and continue to soak the dry food. I still with both my dogs and they are now adults. Most dry food doubles or triples it size when liquid is added. Be aware of that.

the first time i went to the vets they didnt say my dogs cough was kennel cough it was only on the second visit they told me it was

hi

My pup was diagnosed with kennel cough a few days ago.  The coughing sounds like honking and as if theyre chocking on something.  She was actually coughing when the vet examined her.  Her temperature was fine and chest was clear.  Im glad she was coughing as she had no other symptoms and meant we got our anitbiotics quickley.  After 3 days of the treatment her coughing has now stopped.  Is it common this time of year??

Just to add, if not treated quickly it can cause other problems.  I would want a second opinion I think because your not meant to mix with other dogs if they have it.  My pup coughed when she woke up and it was made worse when playing.  Hope yours is ok

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR ADIVCE
TOOK HER TO THE VET AS HER COUGH GOT ALOT WORSE SUDDENLY LAST NIGHT
THEY GAVE HER TWO INJECTIONS AND SOME ANTIBIOTICS FOR A WEEK
SHE HAS NOW COUGHED UP CLEAR/WHITE MUCUS BUT STILL EATING AND DRINKING
WAS TOLD BY THE VET SHE WILL GET WORSE BEFORE IT GETS BETTER AS IT NEEDS TIME FOR THE MEDICATION TO WORK

PLEASE COULD YOU TELL ME,WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO LOOK AFTER HER :rolleyes:IE WINDOWS OPEN TO KEEP HER COOL
OR KEEP HER WARM,VET SAID NOT TO TAKE HER OUT BUT SHE HAS NOT BEEN OUT OTHER THEN FOR HER VACCINE AT THE VET

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP ITS GREAT TO BE ABLE TO TALK TO YOU AS THE VET IS CAREING BUT THEY SEE IT EVERY DAY BUT
MY PUPPY (TESS) MEANS THE WORLD TO US

Hi apparently baby benlyn is really good for kennel cough.

regards Susan

my pup also coughed up white mucus (only twice) as she wasnt ill with it I still took her out, whilst avoiding dogs.  When theyre well its hard, they still expect a walk  my antibiotics were also for a week, half a tablet once a day.  She didnt get worse, she got much better within 3 days but I think it depends at what stage they are diagnosed.  She will be fine - we worry sooo much when they are pups, my little girl is 19 weeks.  I assume yours is younger, as my vet said it was ok to take her out but not to mix with dogs for 10 days.  Best wished Istevensx
