Well my little ryle (8 months) had this same sound going on and we thought something had gone wrong when they had put the tube down his throat when we had his baby teeth pulled days earlier.he would start hacking all of a sudden and especially when he became excited. We were so worried that his trachea had been damaged. So we took him back to our vet and he said he thought he had a virus and gave us a antibiotic to give him once a day orally and sent us home with a nuebulizer and medication to put in the breathing machine to be used twice a day. After 3 times the cough had almost dissappeared after 5 days it was gone completly.we were more than thrilled,so maybe your pup may have a virus. Whatever it is i hope he gets well soon. |
