🌟 Is Your Dog Coughing? Here’s When to See a Vet 🌟
A cough here and there might not be a big deal, but persistent or unusual coughing in dogs can signal an underlying issue. Some possible causes include:
🔹 Canine (Kennel) Cough – A harsh, honking cough, often from exposure to other dogs.
🔹 Heart Disease – A soft, persistent cough, especially at night or after exercise.
🔹 Collapsed Trachea – A goose-honk sound, common in small breeds.
🔹 Lung Disease or Infections – Wet, phlegmy or wheezy coughs.
🔹 Something Stuck! – A sudden, gagging cough after chewing on a toy or stick.
🚨 See a vet if your dog’s cough is:
✅ Frequent or worsening
✅ Paired with difficulty breathing or fatigue
✅ Lasting more than a few days
✅ Producing phlegm, blood or a honking sound
Early diagnosis can help keep your pup healthy! If in doubt, please contact us and book a check-up. 🩺🐾
