Gizmo had the same cough you're describing. He had two bouts of it. Both were kennel cough. The x-rays came back normal, and he ended up getting a clear bill of health at his past check up. But yeah, it's scary, we had to rush him to the ER vet at 4 in the morning. He was put on the same antibiotic as well.

Also, the vet let me give him .5 cc of Robatussin DM for the coughing. That really seemed to help. He was allowed to get that max of three times a day and he's about 4.5 lbs...Maybe 5 now.

Hope Gidget feels better!
