| Noah is coughing!! Hi all, My son just woke me up saying our puppy is coughing and sneezing. It's 6:30 a.m. here and our vet opens in 2 hours. Noah is laying next to me now sleepy soundly, but then he'll start coughing/weezing. he even brought up a little bit of fluid. It sounds as if he's gasping for air when he does it. I'm so scared and hope it isn't anything serious. Please advise, like I said I will also be calling the vet in a couple of hours. Thanks in advance. |

| Aww, do keep us posted and hope things are okay with your little guy. We had kennel cough around here a few years ago after I brought a foster home from the animal shelter. It sounds terrible. Not sure if that is what your Noah has but can relate to the panicky feeling when a pup starts coughing. |

| does your vet have an emergency number that you could maybe get them to meet you a little earlier than the normal hours?

| I can't bring him in until 12:20 I'm sitting in my bathroom with him in my bathroom with the hot water running, hoping the steam will help with the coughing. |

| since I'm a new owner, this is a question.... What are your thoughts on Mentholatum? Our old guy gets a little on his nose when he seems to have nasal issues.... it seems to help... it certainly helped bigger dogs in the past. We also have an inhaler for him, vet recommended. |

" Camphor and eucalyptus in Vapor Rub can be toxic to dogs and when inhaled can cause respiratory issues, so it can make your dog's condition worse.
