Ok, is it normal for a vet to pound a puppy on the chest to check for kennel cough?? Or to pluck hair out of their ears??

Both seemed to hurt Riley, it kind of made me concerned. I have never had a small dog before so I guess neither have really been an issue in the past. Just wanted to make sure this is normal for a routine check up!
