I would for sure get a second opinion but Kennel Cough can stick around for 6 weeks or more unfortunately. That is one of the hardest coughs to get rid of. Sometimes a 3rd round of antibotics is necessary and I've also had the vet give me cough meds to help with kennel cough. BUT...I would take your yorkie in for a 2nd opinion preferrably with a vet that has the knowledge in toy breeds. I've had one of my yorkies have kennel cough and it has lasted for about 6 weeks but kept him on meds the whole time.

Hope this helps,

Donna Bird
