I have posted on this board a few times about my puppy's cough. For the first 3 days that I got him he didnt' cough. After the third day he had a horrible cough mostly when he first woke up and if he ran around a lot. When he'd wake up in the mornings it was the worst. He would literally walk and cough and it sounded like he was dying. Of course I thought the worse...trachea collapse! But I thought about it and realized it started 3 days after I got him. I had taken him to the vet for his first set of shots 4 days after the cough started and she gave him some Amoxil. She said she thought it was post nasal drip due to allergies because it wasn't in his chest, but she still prescribed Amoxi. The Amoxil didn't work. I figured he has some sort of allergy and this was causing the drip. I even changed his food. I also read that post nasal drip could be due to an infection related to sinusitis. So, I went back to the vet a few weeks later and asked her to prescribe something else because I thought he may have sinusitis. She prescribed Cepha drops. That still didn't work. This went on for about 6 weeks. 10 days ago I decided to try some homeopath drops for allergies, inflamation and sinusitis. I figured it couldn't hurt. Well, needless to say, his cough is gone. I'm not sure if he just "outgrew" his problem or it's a mere coincidence or if the drops REALLY worked. I put 5 drops of the medicine on his food 3 times a day. I'm so happy. I wanted to share this with those that are have the non-congestion type morning cough. If you've tried anitbiotics and they haven't worked you may want to try the homeopath drops. Like I said, it could all just be coincidence......but it's worth giving a try. This is what I used:
