I had the unfortunate experience with my gorgeous litter of four weeks old puppies contract from this disease, I assume, the other dogs in my house (which actually showed no signs of KC). They had been out regularly on their tours and had, in a way brought Home the virus without me knowing. Both viral and bacterial causes of kennel Cough is spread through the air by infected cats sneezing, and cough. It may also spread through contact with contaminated surfaces and through direct contact. It is highly contagious, even days or weeks after the symptoms disappear. Symptoms begin, usually 3 to 5 days after exposure. The disease may progress to pneumonia and this is exactly what happened with my young litter!Fortunately I knew the first symptoms, which may include a hard, dry hacking cough, sneezing, retching, snorting, oppression or vomiting after voltage or exercise. swine fever may also be present.
I count my lucky stars that, after the prompt treatment from the veterinarian and dedicated 24-hour nursing from me, pulled all the puppies, scary times! it is no matter how clean the House is how healthy your dogs is, it is inevitable that at some stage, your dog will unfortunately bucks to the dreaded Kennel cough.Puppies and older dogs is a high risk of complications.
