Rothers 0 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Unfortunately antibiotics don't work,especially on a virus. Keep the dog contained,and away from other dogs,it does spread like wild fire. It only lasts up to 10 days,keep the dog from running about,and give the dog some children's cough medicine. Its horrifying to see the dog retching and bringing up that white frothy mucus,but don't panic ,it will soon ease. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ACEPACK 5 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 I have just got rid of it all my dogs had it first thing is take them to the vet and get them jagged they will give you antibiotics, but get your self a cough bottle benylin chest cough worked for mine also ask your vet for Virkon it's meant to be the strongest desinfectant in the market and scrub the inside of the kennels it comes in tablet form and you apply it every five days, it's a frustrating thing my we bitch had it for five/six weeks and couldnae shake it off, Best of luck.

Keep them inside your own property, and refrain from visiting mates kennels ,as its highly contagious . Benylin is a good aid for giving a dog some relief. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
