Possibly the start of kennel cough mate, give 5ml of benilyn 3x a day for a week mate

[digdeeper 278]

What causes this then mate. Where can I get that from ? Dd

I'd try and rule out an obstruction in the throat before giving a medicine for something he mightn't have.

[Lew 111]

If its a little splutter it could be lung worm

[digdeeper 278]

There all wormed regularly and ive checked throat for obstructions allready dd

[Irishman 117]

Might be start of kennel cough give him a jag of penicillin once a day for coupla days see if that helps

[Irishman 117]

I had kennel cough in my kennels for first time last summer alot of lads had it they advised me to give the dogs penicillin and it worked. It started of like they wer choking on a bone stuck in ther throat

wormer doesnt remove lungworm does it?

Bronchitis my spaniel had it! Only coughed when you let it out and was fine in its self!! Run around like a nutter and not cough!

[Irishman 117]

If you think it lungworm try ivermac

[digdeeper 278]

Ivermac whats that then mate?

Leave well alone mate .if its the cough theres nothing you can do, it just has to take its course like a cough in humans .if its still there in two weeks take to the vet .Self medicating a dog can lead to complications later on if it needs vet attention.Too many piling in drugs they know nothing about .

if and if your sure its kennel cough give it some benylin [ get from chemists] otherwise leave well alone and see what develops as fd says to many f***ing about with drugs they dont understand

[Irishman 117]
