In the mean time- and while he is on the antibiotics- try a warm air humidifier, near his bed at night. Also when he is on the antibiotics he should be on some pro biotics- either in pill form or in yogurt- as the antibiotics can be horrible on their little systems.
So is this any kind of yogurt or a special kind. I convinced my vet that it could not be anything else except Kennel Cough and he is giving me an antibiotic.
