bendrover 556 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

philm 2 Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 it prob not kennel cough this time of year prob cold kennel cough really a summer thing Quote Link to post
Shazza 52 Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 It's more common in summer as more people go on holiday and put dogs in kennels but it occurs all year round. My lot got it in January last year, took one of the dogs to a show and some numpty bought thier rotty with kennel cough into the hall. They only stayed 5 minutes before being asked to leave, i never went near with my dog but a week later she had it and it went through all my dogs one after another. 5 weeks before we had a quiet house Reminds me of a kid with whooping cough, it's a similar sound.

Shazza 52 Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Kennel cough vaccine isn't a jab it's a liquid they squirt up the dogs nose and it's a total waste of money! It's like the flu jabs they give out or the common cold, it varies and mutates from one person (dog) to another and the vaccine is only preventative of one or two strains so the dog can still get a mutated version. My mom put her dog into kennels for a week, he had to have the kennel cough vacc before going in and he still came home with it and had to be given cough medicine to clear it up so imo save your money fella 1 Quote Link to post
