Dog coughing


Recommended Posts


Similar thing has happened to mine recently...vet said that it's an infection going round over here at the moment, might be the same in the uk. He said to touch at the base of the neck where the trachea is, if a little bit of pressure it makes it cough it's tracheobronchitis.

Mine had an injection and a course of antibiotics, luckily I have a good vet that doesn't charge a lot...

He also said the best way to prevent it was to make sure the dogs warm before and after running.

It was a platts bred bitch.nothing to do with the breeding though,we think she hit a concrete water trough.

Cough in a jook can mean plenty of things as we all know ,any dog coughing over any time should go vets ,yes could be nothing but it could be lungworm ! Sometimes no sighns are there until the cough comes .

and regular worming don't always work .

To treat lungworm(not saying in this case though)a course of Milbemax should clear it up
