Kennel cough -- please help! hello all, i was wondering if someone can please answer a question: i recently purchased a puppy online from a breeder, when i picked the puppy up from the airport he was letting out these cough.. like he had something stuck in his throat, that day i brought him to the vet and they took an xray and told me he had an upper respiratory infection & said it could be kennel cough, my question is how long does this take to clear up? hes been on the antibiotics now for four days. it seems like he is getting better. coughing alot less. but not 100% thank you !:confused: |

oh boy..months? ok thank you:) |
Cali had it when I got her and gave it to my older pom and it tool 3 months for them to get rid of the cough. Otherwise they were fine just the cough. Hope you baby gets better soon. |
We are on our second dose of antibiotics, its been two weeks. The first which was clavamax was not strong enough now she is on Vibramycin and has almost 98% stopped coughing its been 3 days now. In reading posts here I guess it depends on the meds and the dog. Hope this helps.:thumbup: |
it has slowed down. he rarely coughs only a little in the morning. do you think id it hasn't completely stopped I should go get another round? thank you |
thanks :) |

It does take several weeks to clear. The antibiotics are to help prevent secondary infection. My vet recommends giving pediatric Benelyn to help ease the actual cough. xx Meggie |
Please read my post on Colloidal Silver. I had fantastic results when my dogs had kennel cough. See what you think. |
