    Thank you for sharing this message ❤️ I am a professional pet groomer who does not require my clients to vaccinate their pets for bordetella. It is refreshing to hear your feelings about that vaccination as a veterinarian. My vet pushes it with every client that enters their animal hospital. He is always encouraging me to vaccinate my dog too because he goes to work with me every day in my grooming salon. Regardless of the fact that he doesn’t even know the conditions of my salon. No crating, no cage drying, sanitized daily as well as I am very familiar with my client pets. Thanks again for breathing some fresh air on this subject👏👏

    A friend brought her dog to our house while they were on vacation. He had kennel cough. My dogs (4) were not vaccinated. When I heard him cough, I immediately started all 5 on silver solution called ASAP. I did not separate them. Not one of my 4 dogs got k. c. Not one. Donkey eye infection. Human uti. Skin infections. Prevented flu virus when 1 in the family was infected. The list goes on. We don't use colloidal silver. I believe the solution we use is nano. God bless you for all you do and the info you put out. I understand this stuff kills viruses, bacteria and fungus. It works.

    • @Mary-Mercedes
      @Mary-Mercedes 5 років тому +1

      marsack7 What dose did you use for your dogs? YES there are many kinds of silver solution. Nano particles are the only effective way to administer it. It is a miracle product if you buy the right brand.

    • @marsack7
      @marsack7 5 років тому +2

      @@Mary-Mercedes ASAP brand silver solution 10%. 2 teaspoonsful twice a day. Silver particles in the colloidal are too large to enter the cells and do any good. Also afraid colloidal will cause small ducts to be blocked in certain people. Certainly works for my family including dogs, donkeys, and horses. Could work for my chickens too if need be. No side effects with it. No need for probiotics after using it. Colloidal is good enough to use topically.

    Great info thanks so much. Seems my new rescue beagle picked it up at the vets when I took him in for his first wellness exam for all needed vaccinations. Poor thing had ear mites, ear infection, tape worms…huge amount of problems due to lack of care. Anyways, got him his Bordatella nose vaccine and later that evening he started with the gagging, coughing…he also has major separation anxiety. I got my hands full and my wallet empty😢

    Can you walk the dog at all? My dog has it and is getting down as she is normally in doggy day care. She started coughing Friday night and Saturday we got the vet out and she is on antibiotics and anti-inflammatories which seem to be working. She has only coughed 3 times since Monday. She is 2 year old beagle that needs lots of exercise so this is really tough for her and us as she just keeps wanting to go on a walk

    My dog has been coughing very similarly to what you see in kennel cough for about 5 days. I've taken him to the vet twice in the last week. He was lethargic, shivering at times and had no appetite until recently but he's having trouble swallowing it looks like. He also had conjunctivitis in his eyes which have cleared up. The bloodwork looked normal except for a slightly elevated liver count. He hasn't been pooping either but i suppose that's because he hasn't been eating much. Not really sure what's going on.

    Thank you for such an informative video. It's really appreciated. My dog just got kennel cough and I feel that my vet went crazy overboard: metacam, 2 injections including antibiotics + antibiotics tablets to give at home. I'm so frustrated, all of this is poison in my opinion. My dog coughs mainly at night but otherwise happy and playful. It sound more like he tries to throw up, but nothing ever comes out. Gets a bit worse when he is laying on his back. It's weekend and I want to stop antibiotics. I have only given 1 tablet in the morning so far (+ that antibiotic injection that vet gave yesterday). But now I read online that stopping antibiotics is even more dangerous. What would be your advice? I don't want to continue with them, only metacam (but again don't know if even that is needed). Can only call my vet on Monday now. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

      What did you do mate? My little Puggle has had a horrible wheezy cough and sometimes wretching but is otherwise his normal self. I took him to the vets and as it was suspected kennel cough would only see him in the car park! He prescribed antibiotics and doggy Tramadol (tralieve) however my boy will not take these tablets no matter what I hide them in. Tonight I’ve given him an anti histamine and it seems to have stopped his cough. Could this cough be down to allergies?

    • @PureTruth
      @PureTruth Рік тому +1

      @@Ivar-the_Boneless, your pug is wise to avoid those pharmaceutical poisons. They would have caused more harm than good. My girl still has the issue, but we are able to control it to a level where she is happy. I have noticed that she now has gut issues too as she farts if she wretches. The whole thing points to pseudonoma infection, I believe, from drinking from infected waters, or from her habit of picking up things in the wild. I suspected lung worm for a while, but all tests returned negative (thank God). Items you will need to buy: French thieves essential oil mix, plus a diffuser. If you have a crate then place him in there, use a cover, and humidify his air with this. Add 10 drops of the Thieves oil (go less to begin with to see how he likes it). You should see that as time elapses, he will settle into a normal relaxed breathing pattern.
      Secondly, you need a quality colloidal silver/hydrosol. Get him drinking this, and nebulise as often as possible (if you have a nebuliser). This should wipe out any infection. My girl is the world’s worst patient though, hence the continuation and lack of full remission.
      Ps…I have tried everything and done so in a highly scientific way. Cures I use for humans will not often be accepted by animals as they lack the ability to simply ‘take their medicine’ as you have seen.
      Good luck with it all, and let me know how you get on, and if you would like further advice.
