| Coughing dog Help. My 6 month old yorkie has just started coughing really bad, he is bringing up phlem also. I called the vet and she said she thinks it is Kennel Cough, has any1 had this with their pup and if so is there anything i can do. Vet said to give him a small dose of cough medicine but apart from that there is nothing they can do? |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Sometimes vets prescribe antibiotic as a preventative against pneumonia...but it does nothing for the cough. Use a warm mist vaporizer w/ vick's in it...that will help with the congestion. If you don't have a vaporizer...let the shower run in the bathroom and take her into the steam filled room. Good luck and hope puppy feels better soon.

| Thank you Hi Thank you very much for your help. Mylo is not coughing as much as he was last night but he still has a wee cough. I will try Vicks and see if this helps, thanks again |
