Joey Cough - Allergies? (Video)

[sisters3]

Hello all, hope the link below works. I have noticed Joey has a runny nose, completely clear. Eating fine, acting totally normal EXCEPT for an occasional cough (video below) She will cough like this and at the end gag like she is clearing her throat. She is always up to date on vaccines just had a perfect yearly physical, etc. No trauma to her neck. As I understand Kennel Cough does not end with a gag and does not sound like this.

It will happen randomly and sometime after drinking water. DOES NOT wake her up at night.

So.....my knowledgeable peeps, does this sound like airborne allergies like hay fever? Golden Rod is giving me a hard time right now...sneezing etc.

Thoughts? (Thank you in advance!)

Sounds like mucus to me.. like post nasal drip.

[MENTION=14995]sisters3[/MENTION] Maude has the same cough, and also sounds like she is trying to clear her throat. It has been 8 days since her mouth surgery. I thought it was too long to have a reaction now from surgery. She has never had allergies, but I was wondering,as the grass is dry, and the leaves are falling. I gave her benedryl. Helped a little.

That’s good to know! She had no coughing last night, strange. Like she knew I was going for lemon juice. Maybe this really is post nasal drip and is worse after being outside?

Oh thank you! I’m really hoping that’s all it is! Is Maude recovering well otherwise?

[MENTION=14995]sisters3[/MENTION] Well, Maude's cough suddenly got much worse last night. She could not stop coughing. Tried giving honey,a mess, but no help. I have powerful lozenges, called "Fishermen's Friend" and so I moved into the dog bed, held it between my fingers, and she licked it. It did mostly stop her coughing, and she could sleep. Not so much for me.
She is now snoring, and I am quite sore(dog bed syndrome).She doesn't even want to go out... She has an appointment this p.m. We have not been anywhere-how this happened? I should learn that nothing is simple for "us" (me). I sure hope that Joey does better!

Oh jeez REALLY sorry to hear this!!!! Please let me know how her appointment goes. Praying for normal post op recovery cough??? Drainage??? You're an inspiration to say the least, "dog bed syndrome" is something not everyone dog owner would endure. Thank you Lynn for the input for Joey. I will look forward to Vet's answer for Maude.

Big Bully Hugs (and prayers)

Sue and Joey

Thank you for your concern about my Maude. Don't know what she has, or where she got it, as we don't leave the prop.! She had a pretty bad cough, and nose running but clear. Did not get a name to it, but she got antibiotic and cough medicine. She is doing better. I suspect that she may have been exposed to something when she was at the vet for surgery? She is taking the med and hopefully will be okay soon. Girl in the office mentioned that they had a lot of dogs in lately with kennel cough. Never had it,but maybe that's it? No news yet on tumor.

going to keep an eye on this post.... Praying for Maude (please keep in touch on her) and sounds like Joey issue is under control? Hank does that occasionally and then does the big mouth cough and usually spits out the white foam. Never sure why, and rare, but hopefully thats all it is for Joey.

Thanks to all! I hope Maude recovers quickly! I too have been told about the rise in kennel cough BUT Joey has a gag at the end of cough and I was told with kennel cough that doesn’t happen. Is this true? We’re out of town, back home later today but she only had a few episodes of the cough BUT some pretty lengthy reverse sneezing episodes.

little sweetheart. Hope all is well and thats (i think) how i would describe hanks cough. little then kind of a hack at the end but he does open his mouth wide like he's trying to rid it of something and it always expels at least spit. He really doesnt like to swallow ickie things though.. lol
