My baby has Kennel Cough I took Bailey to the RSPCA to have her vaccine about 10 days ago and this morning she developed a cough so I took her to the vet and he diagnosed kennel cough. I am so upset...as the only place where she has seen any other dogs. I kept her in her carrier the whole time, the only thing that I can think of is that they didnt swab down the examination table properly. I am getting another furbaby too....and now I have to wait until Bailey is better :( |
I'm sorry that has to be so upsetting. Tank had a bit of a cough earlier and I'm wondering if it could be kennel cough. What does it sound like? I'm new to town in Canton, OH and I haven't found a vet yet. It sounds like I might have to sooner than later. I hope Bailey feels better soon. |
what is kennel cough? What is kennel cough? Dusty never coughs but what are the warning sighn and what does it do to the babys? I know I sound like a bad mommy but I have to learn some how. |
Hi, when I got Sawyer he was 3 months old. He had his vaccine, and he developed kennel cough. It is a hacking cough, and it lasted for weeks. The vet kept him on antibiotics so it didn't develop into pneumonia. He did fine! It is frightening, and I thought I would go crazy with the coughing; but as long as they don't develop pneumonia, it will run its course. The antibiotic was the same thing they give a baby, it was kept refrigerated, and he got it twice a day. Good luck, just be patient and this will pass.:animal36 ;) |

Kennel Cough (aka Bordatella) is like a cold. They will have a cough, and usually sneeze and have a runny nose. It can be cleared up with antibiotics pretty easily. But make sure your little one get the Bordatella vaccine. |
Bailey is feeling better this morning...not coughing much at all....yay for antibiotics! The only way to describe her cough is like a cat trying to cough up a hairball! |
