chartpolski 23,612 Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) And you'll get a big vet bill for them doing basicaly nothing !! A vet I used to shoot with, and another vet I used before she retired, both told me Kennel Cough just takes time to clear up. Clean your kennels with bleach. Jeyes Fluid, disinfectant; get rid of the bedding and replace with new; keep the dog warm and draught free, and away from other dogs, and a week or two kennel rest will cure it ! Cheers.

chartpolski 23,612 Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Thanks mate iv done all. What else can I do or is there owt I can give her. Just make sure there is plenty clean, fresh water available. Obviously if it gets more serious than a cough, you need to see a vet; but usualy it will clear up in a week or two, just keep an eye on the dog for more serious symptoms, runny eyes, shivering, hight temp, etc. But for just a cough, don't worry to much... rest and cleanliness should do the trick. Hope it gets well soon. Cheers. Quote Link to post

Shazza 52 Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Honey/lemon & glycerin mixture you can get from poundland. Nothing will cure kennel cough but a little H/L/G will help ease the racking cough, 5ml teaspoon twice a day will help Quote Link to post
