| kennel cough. How does this last? I just bought a four month old yorkie the next day I took him to the vet and I found out he has kennel cough. How long does it last its been 3 week and he still sneezing but not as much. He also had a internal worm so the lady at the vet gave him more medications and she said he should be fine. Should I be worried? How long will it take him to be fine to get all his shots?? |

| It can last for many weeks. If it does get worse he may need to be put on an antibiotic. Antibiotics don't cure kennel cough but a secondary infection can result just like humans with colds |

| Oh actually I took him to the vet and they gave him more medication. They said it will be longer cause be has worm in his stomach. Also how long does it take to grow his hair? I took him to the a pet shop to buy him some cloths and the lady was holding him and he had knots on the side cause he won't let us brush him in the side so she shaved his body. How long will it take to grow it. |

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | Each Yorkie's hair grows differently Brownie's grow's fast & in a few week's it's about 2 -3 inches when shaved. Since he's young there's no way to tell yet. it can be a few week's to month's. |
