Home Remedies Coughing Dog
my dog is coughing?

My Basset 2 years old has a mild cough. sounds something like a dry hack. it is also making strange sounds snoring during sleep. almost sounds like shes sick or about to vomit. but never cough anything. she has never had a cough ever. she's always been healthy. I'm financially strapped right now and not be able to afford to take her to the vet for another week, maybe 2. I will definitely get the vet as soon as possible. but one thing I do to prevent it getting worse or feel better until then? any remedies? thank you very much!

Could it be the bronchitis? Some people call it kennel cough. They sound like piracy is a bone stuck in his throat. Sometimes even cough up a little foam clear, but not much of it. Veterinarians often put them in cephlahexin or amoxicillan for it and simply wait. It lasts about three weeks if you treat it or not. It is rarely fatal. It's like a cold or bronchitis in children. I've heard some say that using cough syrup, but our vet has never suggested that. If your dog is coughing a different cause, parasite will need treatment. Cough different sound different. Kennel cough has a characteristic sound that really looks like something stuck in his throat. If you can get to a vet, it could be diagnosed simply by coughing, if that's the problem.
