So sorry he's not feeling any better. Momo came to me @ 8 weeks old (it was a 'got to save him!' situation where I had to get him out of there or he would've likely been hurt or worse, cause his death) & he had nasal drips which developed into kennel cough. I didn't know he was sick when I 1st got him, so took him to Petco to get his round of shots (since it was due). Well, he got full blown kennel cough which lasted 3 months, countless vet visits to 4 different vets & many antibiotics! The only thing that worked was upping his dose of amoxicillin to 1ml from .05ml. He was only about a #, but all the vets I spoke to said it was ok & it worked. He stopped coughing after about 2-3 doses @ 1ml. It felt like a miracle! I don't know if this kind of case (upping the antibiotic dose) is recommend for Sazzy, but thought I'd share my experience in kennel cough that lasted a long time...maybe you can discuss it w/your vet. All the best to you & Sazzy!
