My little girl that I just got on Sunday came down with Kennel Cough. We took her to the vest yesterday and now she is on antibiotics. Hopefully she'll be alright! Other than coughing, she is eating and playing like normal.

She is also coughing up white foam. Does anyone know if this is just one of the symptoms of Kennel Cough, or is it something else that I should worry about?!

What antibiotic is your baby on? When my vet put mine on ALBON, he couldn't handle it. It is a sulfur antibiotic and was making him throw up the white foam. The vet said that all that hacking is what actually causes the mucus to foam up in the throat..? I put some of the foam in a little baggie to take to the vet and by the time I got to the vet with the baggie, it was clear liquid.
My baby's kennel cough has been treated with every kind of antibiotic now....the cough would not go away.....still has not.! BUT.......extensive testing has now shown congestive heart failure. So......., he will always have a nasty cough, and take antibiotics and Lasix for the rest of his short little life.

We are sending up prayers for you and your baby....please keep us updated and know that yorkietalk is an awesome place for support.
