Inevitablue Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Argh! At the vets for my pups 2nd vaccination, in the waiting room with mine on my lap and another very large pup comes in, unruly, jumping everywhere with an owner in zero control. That's not my issue though The pup bounds up to me and then unloads his chest contents right near us. Yep, he's at the vet with kennel cough. Anyone know of anything I can do to lessen the chances of the virus taking over my pups system? He got the KC vaccine today. I'm being precious but I swear I could see particles floating through the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a good chance that your pup will come down with KC. Treat with cough medicine and manuka honey 20+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swizzlestick Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I'd also be mentioning to the staff that the infected dog shouldn't have been in the waiting room. He should either be brought in another entrance or even looked at outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I was after, something that won't do him any harm but I can try and be proactive. I can get Linctol, but I will wait to see if the cough develops. The guy just walked in off the street, no appointment. There was no one on reception for a short while. I went and waited outside, the guy gave me such filthy look. Sigh.

Fordogs Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I would always suggest that when taking a puppy to the vet either wait outside or leave the puppy in the car until you are called into the consult room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
