steppenwolfstaffords Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Was wondering what the difference is between a cough that sounds like they're pulling on a lead and kennel cough. Is this coughing Like this a sign of kennel cough or just a dry throat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancinbcs Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Kennel cough tends to be a more gagging cough as if something is stuck in the throat. Any other cough needs investigating as it can indicate congestive heart failure or is often the only sign of lung cancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagmar Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) Was wondering what the difference is between a cough that sounds like they're pulling on a lead and kennel cough. Is this coughing Like this a sign of kennel cough or just a dry throat. Even for vets it is sometimes difficult to differenciate between a normal cough and kennel cough. If there is foamy white mucous then it is most probably KC, also this retching like coughing is an indication. My previous boxer stopped breathing after I gave her the KC cough medication and I had to do CPR to bring her back, I then used Brauer's Cough Remedy for Babies and it worked perfectly!
