Close to the end she would get some cough medicine from the vet but I don't have the bottle any longer and don't remember what it was. It only seemed to work for like 2 days though. It was also suggested that she take Prednisone (steroid) but that would make her drink a lot more water and have to pee and have potty accidents (which she never liked having). Her last few days she coughed alot. And she looked so sad. That was when we realized that we were making her hang in there for us and that was not in her best interest. For 3 1/2 years holding her and whispering in her ear made a big difference. | I am so sorry.
