I took her to the vet and she only put some pressure on her neck and was able to elicit a cough which is a good indication of CT. I know there are tests that can be done to know check the severity, but my vet did not recommend any yet since the coughs are still mild and not causing her any discomfort. If it does seem to get worse I will be taking her back to the vet to see about testing and medication.


I have also looked at a lot of videos on youtube of CT, and I think it is impossible to tell just by the sound of the cough. Many that I saw sounded completely different. Some lower pitch, some higher. Here is a video of Lexi coughing. Everyone thinks its Kennel cough because of how it sounds, but I know 100% it is not KC.
