My puppy just got kennel cough, and I took him to the vet yesterday. They said they usually dont treat it in older dogs because it is a self limiting virus, but they treated my little but since he is around 6 weeks. They gave him a antibiotic shot, put him in a nebulizer box and sent me home with three days worth of antibiotics to take one in the morning one at night, and he is going back in the neb box on thursday. For our other dog, they said watch for symptoms but they wont treat him unless he is sick.
Good luck, and Im sure the vet will know whats best for you pup.
